CBV SAC Match 3 – Dee estuary rover – Sunday 8th February 2009

19 members turned out for this one, with 16 choosing the long walk out at Talacre and three heading for Mostyn. Unfortunately these were the only three to fail to weigh in.

The weather had a detrimental effect on catches, with a lot of cold fresh water coming down the river bringing weed and all sorts of rubbish with it! We had a nasty snow shower to contend with in the first hour, but the wind was not too bad, coming from the right, so not affecting us to a great extent.

Top bag on the Day went to Kev Jones with 11 dabs and a whiting in size for a weight of 2.18 kgs. 2^nd was Steve Parrys 8 dabs and a whiting for 1.70, 3^rd Terry Jones with 9 dabs and a whiting for 1.62, and 4th prize was split between Gary Bates and Shaun Rodenhurst, both with 1.46. Nigel Ford took 6^th with 1.20. Top junior was Stephen Higginson with 0.87, Top lady was Sue Price with 0.20, and top team were Kev and Terry with 72 points. The heaviest fish prize went to Dave Mitchell with a whiting of 0.34 kgs.
