THE latest New Earswick Angling Club match at Overton was won by Dave Humble with 5lb exactly.
With the bream proving elusive, it was mixed bags of fish with some quality roach and perch that won on the day.
Steve Baxter was second with 4lb and Dave Dyson third with 3lb 12oz out of a field of 12.
The continuing warm weather has meant York & District Angling Association have had to pump water into Laybourne Lakes from their bore hole to ensure the health of their fish. Dip tanks are also being replenished and new peg numbers painted.
The hay has been cut at Acaster so anglers can now drive down the floodbank to the pegs. However, care must be taken to protect the natural environment.
The final YDAA Junior Match will be held on Laybourne Lakes (Brown’s) on Saturday, July 21, with the draw at 10am.
