The winner on the day was Kevin Boltz of Amalgamated Fisheries. Kevin drew by the bridge at Meadow Farm where he caught skimmers and roach at 4meters on bread to land 5lb of fish in the first hour. He then fished tight over on worm, castor, or pinkie for a couple more skimmers and the rest of his bag of fish.

Runner up on the day was Andy Britt of Maver Bathampton. Andy was pegged opposite the School at Bathampton and fished at 4meters on bread, catching skimmers up to 2lb and roach. He then fished the bottom of the far shelf, alternating his bait of castor and bloodworm for his bag of fish.
