Match results from Tyler’s Common.
14 fished with what started with a unusually quiet first few hours for most.
During the second half of the day things seemed to pick up with the winning weight being over 100lb. Well done Jeff Buxton, all in all it was a enjoyable day with the added bonus of everyone being able to avoid Frank Landon’s (during the war) stories 🙂
