The second match of the 2008 campaign was fished at Kilburn Lake and was run jointly with Long Eaton Soldiers & Sailors Angling Club.

The 25 competitors had to contend with gusting gale force winds throughout the day, and generally the better fish (those weighing around 1 lb) were caught at the down-wind end of the lake.

Top weight fell to Dave Mayo (peg 19).  Fishing 'top two' close in next to his keep net, and baiting with paste, Dave kept fish coming (all between 8 oz and 1 lb 4 oz) throughout the match to end with 82 lb.

Paul Richardson took second spot with 73 lb 4 oz from peg 12, followed by Bow Overmass (peg 24) 67 lb 4 oz, Keith White (peg 16) 62 lb 12 oz,, Len Barker (peg 27) 60 lb 4 oz, and Aubrey Wainwright (peg 4) 57 lb 8 oz.

Match 3 (for the H Mountney Memorial Cup) will be on Lake 4 at BW Makins on Sunday 6 July.  Names to Dave Kent ASAP to book a place.
