The sun shone on the eight Braintree Sea Angling club members who assembled late afternoon on the sea wall at Walton-on-the-Naze to fish the first of their Summer league matches. The bright conditions did not inspire the fish to feed although there was a variety of species caught including a small turbot which is a very unusual fish to find inshore on the Essex coast. The turbot along with a small bass gave Brian Grundy 31 fish points to take third place. In second place with a bass, a dab and a sole for 37 fish points was Chris Leonard. Barrie Senior took the top spot with an eel and 3 bass including the largest on the day a fish of 43cm.
