 MATCH RESULT 17/1/2016 RIVER DERWENT MATLOCK BATH

The river was not in flood for a change, although it was carrying a little extra water. But the match was scheduled to be fished at Matlock Bath which can handle extra water. But overnight snowfall saw a poor turnout and only 8 anglers braved the conditions.

David Clark continued his recent form to take top spot from Peg 25, Dave recorded a superb weight of 11-12, all Grayling caught on the pole feeder and bomb. In second place was Malcolm Bent who weighed 9-11 from Peg 37, Malc caught 16 Grayling and a Roach using the Pole feeder method and picking the odd fish up on the stick float. Third place went to David Fowler fishing from Peg 23, Dave recorded a weight of 8-10 with most fish falling to the pole feeder method again.

Lots of fish caught again on a cold winters day. Plenty of big Grayling showing and endless Trout to be caught.
