In less than ideal conditions, Barrie Senior emerged as the winner as Braintree Sea Angling Club fished their latest match off the Orfordness shingle bank.

Whiting, pout and a few small bass were caught on the rising tide, but as the tide turned some of the anglers were plagued with undersize pout.

However, as the tide eased, the whiting began to feed along with a few dogfish and a couple of codling.

Robin Joy had the best fish of the day with a cod of 52cm, but Senior took overall honours with 571 points from his catch of 26 whiting, six pout, three dogfish and an eel.

Second place went to Paul Drake with 17 whiting, four pout and one cod, dogfish and dab for 384 points, while Chris Leonard was third with 300 points.
