THE Braintree and Bocking Angling Society Club Sweep on Hobbs Croft provided Aaron Gould with his first match win.

One of the club's youngest members, Gould fished for carp and was rewarded with a fish 17-10-0 to which he added a few silvers for a final total of 23-3-0.

He was the first to weigh and had to wait until the last peg was weighed to confirm the win.

It was his father, Matt, who had three carp, but could only manage 21-4-0 as they were a lot smaller.

Sections (excluding winner): 1 M Gould 21-4-0, 2 C Orrin 10-15-0, 3 G Spong 20-2-0.

The Notley Friday Sweep saw Chris Orrin set a new high for the season so far, with six carp and silvers for a total of 37-7-0.

Sections (excluding winner): 1 J Loosley 9-4-8, 2 M Orrin 7-11-0.

The date for the Braintree and Bocking AS Prize Presentation has been fixed for Wednesday, May 25, and will take place at the Liberal Club, Coggeshall Road, Braintree (start 8pm).
