Disaster strikes for round 2 of the Baggers Winter League!

546

Members of the VDE Baggers were super-keen to get back on the water after the success of the first round of their winter league, and they were hoping for a similar fish-filled event for round two. But the fish had other plans! With 15 out of 18 anglers blanking, it was a tough day on the stretch.

Caolan King landed a lone roach after 3 hours, and just when it looked over, Michael Schopen came alive with 20 minutes left — bagging a roach and two perch for 270g and the win! Michał Truck’s 100g tied him for 2nd with Caolan.

Luckily, the remaining 8 rounds will now be fished on the Erne. With 3 droppers in the league, there’s still plenty to play for.
