The 6th and final round of the Oxford summer league was fished by 7 teams of 6 on the Thames at Medley and Folly bridge. With the river clearing after the recent algae bloom, and very blustery wind, it was expected to be a harder match than recent but the river still fished very well especially on the Medley sections On the team front Drennan Oxford Yellow had already sown up the league but still won on the day to complete a good league performance.
The individual competition went down the section wins to decide the winner with Drennan Oxford Yellow angler Tom Hobbs 41 points (4 section wins) just getting the nod over Tony Hobbs 41 points (3 section wins)
