The Stonehouse Brewery sponsored event at Weston Pools on Saturday provided a tight finish in the battle for the beer.The Stonehouse Brewery sponsored event at Weston Pools on Saturday provided a tight finish in the battle for the beer. At stake was a nine gallon keg of fine Stonehouse real ale, donated by the brewery, and the man saying a big cheers at the finish was Barry Gabriel (Deggys), who just sneaked ahead of fellow Deggys rod Clive Wynn. Barry was on peg 3 on the Wilfred Owen Pool and fished pellet on the deck at 7 metres for a 53-12-0 haul, while over on the Canal Clive fished across at peg 7 to finish one fish behind on 52-2-0. Alan Dewhurst (Wallasey Tackle) finished in third with a Stretton Pool best of 42-6-0 and a Stock Pool best of 33-12-0 gave Dave Evans (Deggys) fourth. Peg 3 on the Wilfred did the business again on Sunday and helped Alan Dewhurst to move up from third to first. He alternated lines between 16 metres and 6 metres to stay ahead of Richard O'Connor (Drennan Northwest) who was at peg 4 on the Stretton. Alan's catch took the scales to 54-10-0 and Richard was only just short of the 50lb mark with 49-12-0. Read more in the Shropshire Star
