Ten members fished the river Tyne on a catch measure release Comp,around the Police Launch area on a calm day with a rising tide between 12-4pm.
With the anglers set up Barry (Haversack) Johnson made a late appearance and set up his gear inches from fellow anglers, even though it looked like he had just rolled out of bed, from the off, he was into fish, with some nice size whiteys.
Within a blink of an eye, Haversack had raced into a good lead, with Five fish landed before the others had even had a bite....
As the tide pull started, the fish came on the feed with all anglers starting to catch. Kev Woodcock was praying to the gods with half an hour to go, when he had his first small bite, the smallest knock known to man,produced a treble shot,saving Kevs bacon...
A canny days fishing but bit disappointed with only a few very small codling on show..but Haversack had a lovely 36cm whitey which took the biggest prize, in a bag of 7 which also took him the biggest bag....Well done Haversack !!!!!
Result..Top Five

3rd Pete Chadwick. 2 fish for 54pts

For all those Mick Dunn followers, he was in London at the Dr Who convention (may the force be with him) or something like that !!!!!!!!!!!!!
