The Jones boys are in the money

Jones (Monkhall) left the others standing with an 89-8-0 individual top catch made up of carp to 3lb, boosted by F1s to 2lb, which all fell to poled corn presented at 16 metres from Hawk peg 16.
Dave Parry (Decca AC) came second on Swallow peg nine with 53-8-0, edging Andy Rowbottom (ABC) into third with 49-8-0 from Hawk peg 10.
Jones and his father Carl (Maver) topped the pairs podium on the day with a combined weight of 122-12-0 to share £180 in prize money.
The same pools saw action in round three of the fishery's Sunday Individual League where Highley-based Chris Cadwallader (Monkhall) ran out a clear winner on Hawk peg 18 with 115-10-0.
Fishery owner Ben Stanford (Monkhall/MH Floats) was second with 85-13-0, ahead of Andy Welding (Monkhall), who landed 52-10-0.
