The Leinster Pike Anglers held their third winter league competition at a midlands river venue last weekend. It was a fine dry day, and the favourable weather may have helped encourage anglers as there was a decent turnout on the day.
For most shore-based pike competitions, particularly on rivers, a good double is normally enough to win the heavies fish award, but this time out, the magic 20lb mark was broken, as Jay Cooke landed a super fish that tipped the scales at 20lb 6oz.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to see him in the placings, though, as Rodney Gaynor took that accolade with ten fish for 41lb 10oz.
Full results as follows:
Best Bags:
1st: Rodney Gaynor – 10 fish, totalling 41lb 10oz
2nd: Anthony Lennon – 11 fish, totalling 35lb 13oz
3rd: Jan Rutkowski – 14 fish, totaling 35lb
Pool Pairs:
Rodney Gaynor & Jan Rutkowski – 24 fish, totalling 76lb 10oz
Anthony Byrne & Donagh O Connell – 15 fish, totaling 54lb 13oz
Heaviest Fish:
Jay Cooke – 20lb 06oz
