Gerry Armstrong Memorial Open Boat Match

BSAC GAM open match finally went ahead "just", the forecast was for the high winds to drop later in the day so with a 1 hour delay and a restriction of 1 ½ miles, the 9 boats left Felixstowe trying to find shelter in the lee of the land.

With all the anglers managing to find sizeable codling and small whiting, the result could not have been closer. 1st was Glyn Thomas of BSAC with the biggest codling at 3lb.12 oz, Glyn was fishing on board Vixen and won the cash prize of £200.00. The other cash prize winner of £50.00 was Eddie Thomson with a 1lb.41/2 oz whiting who was fishing on board Optimist. Due the generosity of our Sponsors, members and competitors there were a large number of raffle prizes on offer and most of the competitors took home a prize to go with their fish.
