The VDE Baggers fished the Newry Canal at the weekend in a match that saw them tightly pegged together on the bank. You would expect such close quarters to restrict the fishing somewhat, but that wasnt the case at all, with the canal proving it can hold a fair head of fish, with some fine nets of fish. It was tight at the top as well as on the banks, ans only 350g separated the top three. The top bag belonged to Maurice, with 14.8kg, 200g ahead of Paul Hutchman, with Aaron Hutchman another 150g behind in third.
