Club Championship match 1st January 2017
The first match of the year on New Year's Day was moved to the Enborne Canal in hte hope of finding more fish. The move paid off and on the day there was a clear win for Brian Cripps with 16lb of perch. Second was Dave Smith with 7lb, then Tony Franklin just edged ahead of Karl Godfrey with nearly 6lb. This leaves it finely balanced for the last match in March with Mssrs Smith and Cripps level on points in the lead, and Dave Chandler in with a shout. The full weigh in was:
Brian Cripps 16lb exactly
Dave Smith 7lb exactly
Tony Franklin 5-14-0
Karl Godfrey 5-12-0
Adam Durnford 1-14-0
Dave Chandler 1-8-0
John Cox 0-8-0
