The 5th round of the Oxford summer league was fished by 7 teams of 6 on the Thames at Folly bridge and Sandford. The river was carrying a brown tinge to it due to a algae bloom but this encouraged the fish to feed freely along both stretches with 7 weights over 19lb and numerous double figure weights.
