Results of the Ladies' Cup - Friday, 17 July, 2009 at Flanshaw Dam.
Five ladies battled it out for the title of the Wakefield Angling Club Ladies' Champion Cup 2009.
It was a 3-our match fishing 6-9pm.
The weather was really wild with gusty wind and rain, making the fishing conditions hard, but the ladies carried on fishing and started hooking into some Simmer Bream, Roach, Tench and Bream. Baits working well were maggot, caster, worm and sweetcorn.
Our new lady, Alison Pursell, hooked a 7lb. Carp on peg 16, taking her into 3rd place.
The ladies are also taking part in the Wakefield Angling Club league this year.
The ladies would like to thank the club for sponsoring the Ladies' Cup match.
