A succession of heavy storms around the Vale Of Evesham put a touch of extra colour and pace on the Warwickshire Avon for this Wychavon Championship qualifier, and it certainly seemed to turn the fish on to feed!
Top rod on the day was Maver Bait-Tech ace, Rich Reynolds, who banked a succession of quality roach on pole fished hemp and tares, to finish with 14-8-0 from peg 36.
In second place from peg two was local youngster Bradley Proctor, who caught a good bream on flatfloat over groundbait, and a host of big hybrids on hemp to finish with 14-4-0.
Third place was taken by Middy backed ace, Joe Oakes. Joe caught a bream on groundbait feeder, and a run of good roach on hemp to finish with 12-5-0 from peg 67 at Hampton Ferry.

1 Rich Reynolds (Maver Bait-Tech) 14-8-0 (peg 36)
