Matchwinner Ernie Lowbridge has had a fine winter season and added another victory to his list from peg 20.

It is a good area but as always you have to work at it to get the best out of the peg.

After a slow start Lowbridge soon realised it was a case of little feed and a single maggot on the hook that worked best and at the final whistle he finished with 55lb 7oz.

Chris Baldwin came in second from peg 10, again catching on maggot for 47lb 5oz.

Will Hadley completed the fram, taking third place with 41lb 5oz.
