Well done to Woodford, a long way to come and a good return for their impressive committment.

Savages end fished reasonably but most (the majority) of fish came from the Willows and Gaynes areas but fish caught EVEYWHERE in practice. Grafham is now officially "fishing it's t1ts off".

Rolly polly blobs with DB's in between and a lot of fish came on the hang. Fish were "up" in the water on a day of a little sun and a fair degree of cloud cover.

Well done to the Welsh and Irish lads on their success. We look forward to doing battle with you again in the Final.

Also, Well done, but commiserations, to Tunbridge Wells Fly Fishing Society who narrowly missed out. A fine effort in their first year in the team competitions.

Well done to all, it's good to hear Grafham is back on form. Roll on the weekend

Well done bigman. See you, Vince, Keith and the boys at Rutland in October.

And some mustard ice cream to wash it down.

That boomin Heston Blumenthal keeps bugging me for the recipe!

Where you staying? Were in a pub in Oakham...Hornblower or something like that?

Staying in a brothel in Peterborough mate. But it's not horns they blow there. They say they have plenty of room, especially for Mankini wearing Geordies.

Only joking. We are staying in self catering cottages in Manton, with a pub about 400 yards away. But no doubt we will be calling to Tescos en route for the usual 300 tins of beer.
