Well done Sean, jim and Rob.Well deserved. Was wondering did Predator II have engine trouble this year? Very low ranking for them on this ocasion. They usually do so well in either first or second? You guys must have had your marks down to a T on this ocasion. No easy task by any means with all those pros in that comp. Well done :D

Thanks Luke, not aware of any engine trouble on Predator II this year. Their best finish ever was 2nd last year. Other than that they would be placed in or around the top 10 most years.

It was by far the toughest one we ever fished, a strong field. While we had some “quick” fish on some marks there were others that we had to work very hard for. Normally you get a lucky break along the way, not so for us this year. The comp is fished to “real” size limits and this really puts it up to the crews.

Hi John,

Welcome to SAI. I didn't think one of your vintage would manage to work one of those computer things. :D

I am slowly getting round to updating the Festival Site and will have daily results up shortly.

new tactics for 2009 moor booz & a S Quinn


More booze for the crew and at least one good angler on board - nice tactics :D

Cheers,
Jim
