On what was the hottest day of the year so far this was always going to be a hard match on a low clear river.

All weights were made up of small Skimmers Bleak and Perch.

Thank you David,
Good weights considering the inferno heat being experienced currently.
I replied to the post that Mr Williams put up of the photos of the fish caught in your contest.
I remember the great catches of Bream coming from Ripple through the 1960’s - 1970’s
Keep on Fishing

Thanks from me too David and to John for posting the photos that put meat on the bones of your report.
I won my first Club contest at Ripple back in the 70's. I was only 15 or 16 and I'd cadged some stale loaves from a local bakery and spent hours grinding them into bread crumbs, making @10kg of prepared ground bait, and then I had to haul it in a bucket half a mile or more down stream from Uckinhall car park ( the nearest BAA car park in those days if you had to fish Ripple) but I was eventually rewarded with a 20lb plus bag of skimmers.
No photos in those days but Happy Days all the same
