Swallowfield Fishing Club

Trout and barbel Suprise Matchmen.

This match took place on the River Loddon this year with ten anglers taking part and also being the last match on club waters before the season closed. The weather remained overcast for most of the day with the sun eventually breaking through after midday. The light breeze however made things fell quite a bit colder and made fishing difficult at times as bite detection suffered at the hands of the wind. Only three anglers caught for the relevant places and prize money. Two trout where caught on maagots but unfortunately did not count under match rules. The results and pictures are below.
