ROUND 12 of the Carp-r-Us Summer-Autumn Series was fished on the River Segura between Jacarilla and Bigastro.

“Although there hadn’t been any recent rain the river was very high, running fast and very muddy so a tough match was expected,” said club secretary Steve Fell.

This was won by Dave Hutchinson, who was fishing his first match for a while. Dave fished Peg 1 with pole and corn to take 13.2 kilos.

Towards the other end of the stretch, Steve Fell used a combination of pole and bread and feeder to take 6.3 kilos, which included four small barbel.

The ever-consistent Willie Moons was in third place with 3.8 kilos from Peg 2, just pipping Richard Crawshaw who also had 3.8 kilos on Peg 3.
