What a brilliant weekend! I think it was my favourite event we’ve ever done. Loads of fish and loads more laughs, juniors catching plenty and a close competition.

Teams were perfectly even at 28 anglers each, and the event went right to the wire with just 16cm separating the 2 rival types of fishing.

After 3 years of glory Team Lure thought they were cruising to another victory, but this year things felt different. Team bait came out in force and brought the ringers with them. 2 of those ringers were George Kendall our 2023 Bass Challenge Winner with a brilliant score of 167cm, and who had all 3 fish in team baits top ten fish. The next ringer was Lydia Whitfield who is junior champion with a fantastic 110cm!!

I can only guess but we must have been pushing 1000 bass between us all. Lots of small ones but a few crackers in there as well.

A really great weekend, and a fine way to finish our events for the year.
