BOB Fearnhead must be about to embark on an unforgettable Christmas, judging by the amount of winners' envelopes he has taken from the Doe Hey matches he has run throughout the year.

It must surely be a New Year's resolution by those who finance him by fishing in the matches to get to grips with Doe Hey by beating him with bits rather than big game hunting.

But without a doubt he's a master on the water and showed his class again by winning the last couple of matches. Wednesday Open. 1st. Bob Fearnhead 2-14-0, 2nd. Roland Stansfield 2-12-0, 3rd. Fred Yates 1-7-0. Sunday Open - Top Water. 1st. Bob Fearnhead (Worsley Angling Centre) 5-15-0, 2nd. Bob Rothwell (Little Lever Anglers) 5-4-0, 3rd. C. Wilton (Guest) 5-0-0. Sections.
