This round was fished on the Roslea Lake of Inver, Lyons, Gavin’s, and Killyfole, with the two of the top three anglers coming from Inver.
A week of cold temperatures slowed sport, however overall plenty of small roach and odd bonus bream and perch were still landed on Pole tactics.

In first place was Ireland International angler Tommy Dowd (Virginia) 5.750Kgs on Inver peg 16, Tommy’s catch was mainly Roach taken on the pole.
Runner up was Ewan Weed (Omagh) 2.750Kgs on Inver peg 14.and in third place was Steve Finchett (Ballyconnell) 2.470Kgs on Lyons peg 9. Steve’s catch included 2 good Bream again taken on the Pole.
