BRAINTREE Sea Angling Club members headed down to East Sussex for their latest match at Pevensey Bay hoping for some plaice.

With a south westerly wind and a calm sea the fishing conditions looked reasonable, but the fishing was slow.

Three of the anglers did manage to catch at least one plaice, though.

Barrie Senior started with a plaice and steadily caught fish throughout the day and ended up with two plaice, one flounder, six dabs and seven whiting for 229 points.

Second place went to Paul Drake with the best plaice of the day a fine 35cm fish and three whiting for 83 points, while Chris Leonard took the third spot with 54 points from his catch of one plaice, two whiting and a small smoothhound.
