After the kennet we split up I went off to the Thames with Justin Beale where we had a barbel dead on 10lb several chub and bream, Paul and Dave went off to do the Loddon and st pats, Loddon was abandoned and the lads concentrated on st pats with Tom herbert taking 2 barbel to 7lb 14oz

Just finished on the royalty fished caster and hemp to get plagued by dace, Paul despite having barbel in his swim couldn't manage 1, Dave winkled 1 out about 8lb but is still fishing.

After 10 days and 12 rivers travelling over 850miles and walking god knows how many miles humping gear about we've called it a day, we was hoping to do the 14 but we are physically and mentally drained.

Time for a proper nights sleep, a decent meal a cold beer and sex with the wife

Well done Jerry, Paul, Phil, Dave and other guest anglers, what HAS been achieved this year is amazing and a credit to you all!!

I hope people get the donations pouring in now, you lads have given it all, time for people to show their support, a great and worthy charity!!
 
Well said Crooky. Dig deep guys, that could be your husband or wife, son or daughter out there with dreadful injuries, and in need of our help. There but for the grace of god, and all that.

Cheers, Dave.
