The Final 64 peg round was fished on a very clear Bristol Avon at Newbridge and as per the previous round it was a bream bag that won.
Garbolino Blackmore Vale Angler Andy (Titch ) Burntsen carried on with his bream catching form from rounds 3 and 4 on the Huntspill with a 31lb 3oz pole caught bag from peg 39 on the straight, Andy was struggling for bite but a change to a single pinkie on a 22 brought his first skimmer, another on the next cast made him get the decking rig out, but he had no bites on that, a change back to the (in Andy's Words) Gay rig brought 10 more skimmers/ Bream to 2 1/2lb

Well done Chavey, see you at Tunnel Barn for the final, is it the top 3 teams go through this year????Or have thatchers not made it????

[joffmiester]

another bl##dy carp venue

[chavey]

Thanks guys,Thatchers were 3rd Ropa, its the 1st time in about 15 years that they have been beaten in the super league

[ropa]

Normally the top 2 from each league got to the All Winners Final, now that Mark Harper ( Thatchers ) is running the event wonder if they allow 3 teams to go through

[chavey]

Yes it is the top 3, it's funny that? Mark was talking about it outside the pub after the match on Sunday.

To be honest Rich I`m just glad the leagues are still running after Drennan pulled out , we could have lost the final altogether if Mark hadn`t decided to run it. Plus it gives more teams a chance to fish a big event. Long may it continue, wether we decide to fish on Tunnel Barn every year or change the final venue each year???
