Tough conditions yesterday for the North Devon Match Group who fished both Fletchers and Edwards lakes to make some great catches despite wind and rain.

Clawford Christmas match saw anglers greeted by the hardest frost of the year so far, “bloody freezing”. Still 34  anglers had a days fishing as surprisingly there was only a bit of light ice at the ends of the lake.

Always gong to be a testing match but well done to Martin Turner who managed the top weight from peg 23 on JRs 34lb 6oz. second was Nick Jones with 24.15 from peg 9 on Fletcher’s and third was Thomas Downing with 21lb 4oz from peg 4 on Chris Boulton  picked up the silver fish pool.
Nielsen Jeffery who organized the match would like  everyone who turned up and supported the day, and thanks to all for great company.
Thank you to John, Wanda Ray and Michelle Jeffery for their hospitality and help with the breakfasts.
