This report on a thrilling end to the Spring League from the IASCaire Feeder Fishing Club:

What a way to end the season! Going into the final round, the leaderboard was razor-tight: Sarunas on 6 pts, with Max and Romas breathing down his neck on 7 pts. We knew it would be close, but we didn’t know it would come down to the very last seconds!

The story of the day has to be Samuelis Navickas. At just 14 years old, he drew a peg no one fancied and absolutely smashed it, taking his first-ever league win with over 5 kg. He showed the “older lads” exactly how it’s done—huge congratulations, Sam! Well in, lad!

The margins for the overall title were incredibly slim. Romas managed to pipe Max by just 40g to secure the title, while only 100g separated Max and Sarunas. A tough one to take for those who missed out, but easily one of the most entertaining leagues we’ve ever fished!

TOP 3 OVERALL:

  • 1st Place: Romas Na – 9 pts (15.400kg)
  • 2nd Place: Max Novak – 10 pts (15.130kg)
  • 3rd Place: Sarunas Zenkovas – 10 pts (13.190kg)
