Jeale jumping for joy after victory

Collingham's Millennium Fishery hosted a 52-peg charity match on Saturday in aid of Help for Heroes, with the match fished in torrential rain.

The winner was Jason Jeale on peg 15 on Willow, who bounced back to form after being battered on both sides the previous week and packing up early. This time he fished a feeder with meat and pellet as bait to take 64-2-0 of decent mirror carp.

Wayne Holland was runner-up on Centenary peg 13, fishing pellet shallow to finish with 58-6-0 of mostly F1s, while Will Sweeney was third from Willow peg 20, fishing pole and paste for 52-6-0.

Ced Baldwin had loads of small F1s on paste for 44-12-0 and fourth spot, and Tony Williams on the next peg had some better fish on a feeder for 40-5-0, while Russ Jones was sixth with 36-14-0. Winner of the mystery pairs were Jeale and Joe Cox with 97-0-0.

The match raised £300 for the charity, plus the proceeds of the raffle after the match.
