WINTER LEAGUE 2008

Another successful winter league of 2008 now complete. This year 9 teams competed for the crowning title with a total of 54 anglers fishing each week. However before we start, this has all been made possible by Tony Gibbons who each week made sure everything was sorted and in place, so a BIG thanks to him for running the event.

Again this year it was fished over three lakes comprising of the Pleasure Lake, Colton and Willow with some very good weights being caught. On week 3 the complex and lake record was broken with a very impressive 363 lb caught by Warren Martin (pictured below with trophy) in the Pleasure Lake with back-up weights of 176lb on week 4 from Mark Bradford and 144lb from Glen Burden. Over the four weeks a combined weight of 6756 lb was caught.

Every year there is a raffle held at the presentation of the event and this year £250 was raised for the EACH charity. The EACH charity helps families throughout their experience of caring for children with life threatening conditions and complex health needs.

Again organised by Tony Gibbons so thanks to him and the 54 anglers who contributed and fished on the Barford Lakes complex. Hope to see you all again next year!!

The winning team was Carp Vader and they are pictured below.
