Aaron Xuereb claims the Deep Water Quay Competition by the very last Cast

09/07/2017 17:32

KSFA`s 3 singles match was held today the 9^th of July at The Deep-water quay Marsa.

This match started earlier than usual, at 06:15 and finished at 10:15. A total of 22 competitors took part and much was expected from this venue that had not been fished for quite a couple of years. And to a certain extent did not disappoint as some nice specimen mullets were caught on paternoster rigs, together with a nice Gilthead Bream (awrata) weighing in at 1.21kgs on a .12mm line, this was superbly landed by Sandro Cohen.

Today's winner Aaron Xuereb, had a great day landing no less than 2.610kgs, but the winner for Aaron was a White Bream (Sargu - picture below, and weblink of video clip) of 0.740kgs landed within seconds of the final horn. In 2^nd place we had the return of what was once a junior Kingfisher now no longer junior of course Yauman Law with 2.58kgs, and in 3^rd place Brian Farrugia with 2.5kgs.

A total of 40.57Kgs of fish were caught which after weigh in were released back in the sea. Winners were presented with trophies and vouchers.

Next match (Final match from the Qualifying Matches) shall be held on the 23rd July, venue to be determined.

Just a Reminder we wish to remind everyone that on the 2nd August we shall be having a Barbecue buffet as a social gathering and on the day we shall have with us the Honorary President Steve Johnston
