🎣 President’s Cup – Round 5📍 Charlton Orchard – Taunton & Bridgwater CanalToday saw the fifth round of the President’s Cup take place at Charlton Orchard, with 21 anglers booked in. This allowed us to spread out from the broken bridge all the way down to the pillbox.The water was gin clear today, with just one boat passing through late in the match, making conditions particularly difficult for the bigger fish.The water did, however, have a lovely flow from left to right. I’m not sure why that was, perhaps they’re putting some water into Durleigh Reservoir?It was a grey start to the day, but the weather soon brightened up, leaving us with some lovely conditions and a slight downstream wind.With this section capable of being a little peggy, and the two sections either side of the wire generally proving better than the middle, I decided to split the match into three sections of seven and pay the top two overall to spread the money around a little more.Unfortunately, only one tench showed today, with Martin Chiffers landing that fish just 10 minutes before the end of the match!There were a couple of decent perch caught throughout the match, with Matt Dunster managing to find a couple. He put them to good use alongside his 100-odd roach to take a comfortable match win with 11lb 6oz. 🏆In second place was Ian “End Peg” Burton, who caught some lovely stamp roach to put together a weight of 8lb 10oz.🏆 Match Results🥇 1st – Matt Dunster: 11lb 6oz🥈 2nd – Ian Burton: 8lb 10ozSection Winners* A Section: Richard Bradley – 8lb 7oz* B Section: Dan Baldwin – 6lb 11oz* D Section: Lee Holliday – 7lb 11ozWell done to Matt on a great win, and thanks to everyone who came along and supported the match. 🎣
