Another fabulous afternoon on George’s lake, Tarka Swims . 18 young members lined the banks on , this , our second 3 hour match in the 5 match summer league
Hot muggy conditions meant a slowish start , but towards the 5 o’clock finish the resident carp decided to have chew .
Jenson took full advantage and landed several decent specimens in the closing stages to secure victory off peg 19 mainly on a feeder to the island.
Hallie has put a lovely mixed catch together on peg 11
for a well deserved 2nd place.
Leo drew peg 4 and managed a very credible 3rd place.
Many thanks again to our helpers, without them these events would not be possible.
