Newcomer Alan Chambers impressed at both the Wednesday Open and the Sunday Club match.

On Wednesday Alan was on hot peg 35 and fished feeder and worm for seven big bream for 31lb 12oz and a clear win.

DEBUTANT: Alan Chambers had a fantastic first showing at Tydd Gote Angling Club.

Steve Fox was on peg 25 and fished similar tactics for four bream for his 20lb 14oz and second place with Colin Burton also taking four fish from peg 34 for 17lb 1oz and third place.

At the Sunday Club match Andrew Kilby had peg 35 drawn for him and it was no surprise when he romped home with six bream for 25lb 4oz.

Thomas also claimed two good bream for 9lb 8oz and third place.
