 THE JUNIOR FISHING EVENT ( raised £400. well done!!)

The event was run by Louis Morris ( chair person ) and Dave Noble (secretary) of the Dallam and District Community Angling Group. As the match prevailed with the 34 entries, the children had a task in front of them as the weather changed to horrendous conditions but they all braved it out and fished untill the end.

(Here are some of the contestants who took part)

   The fund raising childrens match in the junior section was won by 14 year old Jack Impey with 2lb 8oz.  2nd place.. 15yrs.old John Andrews 1lb.13oz.  3rd place .. 15yrs. old James Laithwaite with 1lb. 7oz.
