Easter Festival day 1

Today saw 24 anglers down the lake to fish the long awaited Easter Festival as the last one took place in 2019.

The weather was overcast with a cold wind making fishing for most very difficult.

Top weight today was Paul Hurrll who had 5 carp for 61lb in his final weight of 69-07 on peg 24 just ahead of Taff Davies and Dave Wilsden who both weighed 61-15.
