BOB Fearnhead fished right up in the water after conditions, prior to last Sunday's Winter League Match on Doe Hey, had caused the deeper water to cloud.

The Worsley Angling Centre member caught a lot of small fish before a few skimmers helped seal the match with 10lbs-3ozs. Farnworth's Dave Gregson was second after catching five big skimmers whilst Lord Nelson's Kenny Stewart was third. Fearnhead won the league with 6 points with Marvin Hyde second and Tony Mayoh in third. In the Wednesday match on Doe Hey, Roland Stansfield (Royal Ashton) took first place with 5lbs-20zs, in front of Bob Fearnhead and Marvin Hyde.
