Match Report 24 October β 17:30 to 23:30
Low Water: 21:19 (Hartlepool)
Last night, 12 hardy OMAC members turned out for our final match of October β and they certainly earned their stripes. With the storm in full swing, the lads still felt optimistic. A lively sea running, strong westerly winds hammering over their backs for most of the match, and rain that definitely wasnβt the lottery win they hoped for.Thankfully, after the first hour, the gods eased off the downpour, leaving the lads to battle only the wind and the swell.Despite the rough conditions, 7 of the 11 anglers returned to the scales with some cracking fresh-run fish.
There was plenty of talk about fish showing, but the swell made it tough to keep them on β a few spoils claimed by the sea before they could be landed.
π£ Top Rods
Craig Bage took Best Bag, landing 4 cod, including one just under 5lb β a quality haul in the conditions.
Ron Smith claimed Heaviest Fish, beating Craig by 2 grams. Fine margins, but thatβs match fishing. Top dangling from both lads.π
Shoutouts
Well done to everyone who found fish, and equal credit to the lads who turned out and grafted through the weather
