Third Ton For Jon

Barby Banks Evening Series, Rugby, Warwickshire – Wednesday 20th June.


Pole Fishing editor Jon Arthur topped the field with his third successive ton-up catch in the Barby Banks three-hour evening contests.


The Pole Fishing editor used a variety of tactics in his 13m wide swim, including pellets, groundbait and maggots and the Method feeder underamed tight across for 30 carp and a 118lb 8oz winning catch.


In second place was Mark Griffiths (Guru) with 87lb 4oz with worm over groundbait while Mick Timson (Dynamite Makins) was third with 65lb 10oz (he wasn't allowed to weigh in the surprise crayfish he caught!).


The matches are on every Wednesday evening and cost just £12 to enter with just £3 taken out for peg fees. Draw at 5.30pm in the Marshes car park with fishing from 6.15pm to 9.15pm. To book on, ring Tom Scholey on 07971 620489.
