Ben Cracknell won the annual Stokes family trophy with a total weight of 442g, after catching an eel near the end of the match.
Forty anglers took part in the event on August 22, held alongside the Wyvern Junior match. Good weather helped produce a respectable turnout, with visiting clubs also represented.
Anglers caught pout, tompot, corkwing, smelt, pollock, whiting and shanny. A large shoal of mackerel left the harbour just before fishing began.
Theo John caught the most fish, with 14, while Evelyn Restall recorded the smallest catch, a 2g smelt. Chelsea Pearce caught the first fish, and Ben Cracknell had the heaviest round fish.
Theo finished second with 394g, while Sam Carter took third place with 280g.
Organisers thanked the Stokes family for donating prizes, Norman for supporting juniors, and Tiny for managing the scales and helping with arrangements. They also thanked Angling Centre West Bay for its support.
The next event will be the Juniors versus Parents match on September 19, with organisers hoping for another strong turnout.
