Maver Bait-Tech man takes victory at Evesham.
Overnight rain meant an attractive tinge of colour stayed in the Warwickshire Avon for the second of the weekend qualifiers. Winner on the day was Maver Bait-Tech ace, Richie Reynolds. Richie drew Peg 43 just above the White House Bend, and took two good bream on groundbait feeder tactics in the early part of the day. Later on, he switched to his favoured hempseed approach, and added several quality roach to his tally, to finish with 10-14-0.

Pole Fishing Magazine’s Tom Scholey took second spot from Peg 6 on the Crown Meadow. Tom caught a 4lb chub on worm fished on the short pole, and several chunky hybrids on groundbait and maggot tactics to finish with 7-15-0.

Matt Woods took third spot, and the final qualifying place from Peg 85 outside the Cricket Club. Matt also managed a big chub over a bed of chopped worm on the short pole, and added several smaller perch to his net to finish with 6-3-0.
