The first match of the Summer League under COVID-19 conditions was all fished on Cressage Meadow, to ensure that only the scales man touched the scales and our new weighing "bucket.' It was won by myself from Peg 9 with 7 chub and one barbel all taken on pellet for a weight of 39 Lbs 8 Ozs. Second from Peg 5 was Ken Arnold with 3 barbel for 16 Lbs 4 Ozs and third from Peg 10 was Brian Tinman with 2 barbel and a chub for 11 Lbs 4 Ozs. The river was low and clear and some torrential showers made the conditions difficult for some competitors - including me as I didn't bring a brolly!
The second match used two sections (Cressage Meadow and Taylor's Farm) as we now have 2 new weigh "buckets" to enable scales men to weigh everyone safely. The river had a bit of colour and was up about 18" after the previous days of rain. The match was won by Paul Harrison from Peg 10 with a "bag of bits" as he put it, for 13 Lbs 4 Ozs. Joint second were Paul Styche from Peg 74 and Ken Arnold from Peg 88 both with 12 Lbs 6 Ozs.
