YOUNG anglers set their lines for some impressive performances on Furness Fishing Association waters.

Children contested two rounds of the coarse section's junior league, with William Ireland and Kane Craig both hooking victories.

The Cumbria Constabulary Trophy on Low Pond, sponsored by Jaggar Heating and Plumbing, found the water's small carp refusing to feed in earnest.

But the young competitors fished well, with Ireland having a great day and taking 4lb 2oz to the scales.

In the same waters for the Jonathan McWilliams Memorial Trophy, sponsored by the Lisdoonie Hotel, Craig fished like a veteran and took a very creditable 18lb 7oz to the scales for the win.

Among the senior members, the popular Evening League saw Chris Brookshaw fish with great aplomb across the rounds to haul in the title.

In the second event on Low Pond, Brookshaw fished a great match, and his weight of 10lb 14oz was enough to give him a comfortable win.

In the third round at High Pond, the wily Martin Winward showed his class with a net of 2lb 13oz sufficient to earn him victory.

Jamie Atkinson was the best among a good field for round four at Low Pond, fishing a great match to weigh in a creditable 11lb 7oz.

Winward took the spoils once more in the final round, with a mixed bag of 5lb 8oz taken to the scales at High Pond. Despite his two wins in three rounds, he could not usurp Brookshaw at the summit.

After his second-placed finish in the Evening League, Winward started well in the Summer League, taking the Matchman Cup on Rita.

He showed his class to take gold with 10lb of skimmers and silver fish.

David Boyel took home the Furness Trophy from Burn Hole.

The relative newcomer had a weight of 7lb 4oz on the scales for a comfortable triumph.
