1st February 1998.

The Annual Inter-Club Knockout Tournament held in Scarborough, boundaries from Hayburn Wyke to Coble Landing, Filey was fished on Sunday 1st February 1998.

This was a four hour match time, competing for the "Bell Trophy" which Whitby Angling Club won last year.  It was a dry day but very cold as anglers fished an ebbing tide with very little movement, as the sea swell had become clam from a South Westerly breeze.

This years winners were Scarborough Rock Anglers with Whitby being placed fourth out of nine teams.

Whitby anglers who weighed in were:-
Neil Inglis 1 lb 15 oz (2 fish)
Dave Perrett 1 lb 11 oz
Glen Kilpatrick 1 lb 00 oz
Ian Russell 0 lb 15 oz
Jimmy Middlemas 0 lb 15 oz
Andy Craig 0 lb 15 oz
an average of 09 oz per man who fished for the club.
