Alan Anthony, Coventry boat angler caught the week's best brown at 8lbs 6ozs to a Silver and Green Tube Fly near to the Valve Tower. Leamington Spa regular Mr Bob Askew also took a nice brown at 5lbs 00ozs from Toft Bay.
Derek Griggs of Leicester caught the 7lbs 3ozs rainbow. Osprey FF Mr D Williams took a 6lbs 8ozs and Mr Malcom Pearce of Bedworth banked a six pounder from the Cornfield.
Best eight fish limit was 27lbs 8ozs to Mr Bernard Lewis of Dyffryn FFC, South Wales. Other good limits from the boats include 27lbs 00ozs to Mr P Thompson of Nottingham, 25lbs 6ozs to Mr Tom Jones of Coventry, 23lbs 11ozs to Mr John Hoskins of Bromsgrove, 23lbs 8ozs to Mr Fred Broady of Gloucester and 23lbs 4ozs to Mr Keith Harding of Birmingham.
Top of the five fish limits was 21lbs 4ozs to Cheshire boat angler Mr John Jones, Mr Ray Bird of Nuneaton weighed in 20lbs 10ozs and Mr Ray Higton of Nottingham had five for 20lbs 8ozs.
It is quite remarkable how the bank continues to fish well at this time of year and Mr Malc Dawson of Leicester took seven well conditioned fish weighing 23lbs 10ozs to a Diawl Bach at the Tower Paddock. Other good bank catches went to Mr Nigel Walton of Coventry with five for 17lbs 6ozs and Mr Stan Edinburgh of Birmingham took five for 16lbs 2ozs on a Buzzer.
Diawl Bach, Hares Ear, Cruncher, Cormorant, Zonka Hot Tail and Gold Head Damsel all doing well plus a few on Dry Fly.
