Ryan from Athy & District Anglers reports on the second match of their 2023 summer league…
What a phenomenal days fishing last saturday! Truly some stunning Tench, Bream & Hybrids on display during this match. We’ve had a 14th Angler join the banks today for the second match of our 3-match mini Summer league, welcome Jimmy!
Despite the dodgy weather and thunder on the horizon, all anglers persevered and some excellent weights were reported when all was said and done! Well done to all of our anglers on the bank today.
Congratulations to our winner and framers from Saturday’s match:
- Ciaran Dunne – 12lb 8ozs
- Colin Oliver – 11lb 10ozs
- Ollie Doyle – 10lb 8ozs
And now for the league update, let’s see where we are heading into the last match this weekend!
- Colin Oliver – 3pts
- Ciaran – 5pts
- Ollie Doyle – 8pts
- Chris – 11pts
- Tommy – 11.5pts
Whereas the last match was won by roach, this match was absolutely won by tench, hybrids & bream. Some excellent fun playing these beautiful fish into the keepnets! Anglers who did best at feeding little and often, maintaining a good active presence in their pegs took today away!
Let’s take a look at some of those bags:
