Fishing form 14.00 - 19.00hrs, a growing N & ESEasterly combined sea state with plenty of colour.  The Westerly wind was not as strong as forecasted but did blow in some heavy cloud cover, with rain by match end 19.00hrs.

Members had an hour to weigh-in at The Stakesby Arms, followed by a Christmas carvery, and presentation, where no-one goes home empty handed.  Bernard Vasey, wearing a Christmas jumper, red Santa hat, had decorated the tripod in festive tinsel to get members in the festive mood.
