The winner was Robert Hackworthy of Plymouth Rod Benders with a beautiful conditioned fish of 3lb 3.1.oz  caught on the Saturday and he wins �1000 first prize plus �260 pools
The 12 National Flounder Championships is back on track following a downturn in entries over the past two years due to the lack of flounder in the river and consequent poor catches.
The 250 competitors including 22 Juniors travelled from all over the south of England. and Wales to brave the winter winds and rain which prevailed on both days.
Over 70 entrants caught and weighed good quality fish with 3 fish above 3lbs and a total of 11 fish were recorded above 2lb 8oz, the NFSA Specimen weight for the area.
The Championship from its inception has always been fished with conservation of the species in mind and all but five of fish were returned live to the river and the remainder were prepared and donated for the table.
The success of these Championships must in no small part be down to the excellent backing of the sponsors who support the prizes of �1000 first place, and �250 for each day prize, plus good quality tackle prizes down to 10^th place on both days of the championship.
The presentations were held at the Lifeboat Station and made by Mrs Steve Drew the wife of the longstanding president of the Teignmouth SAS. She also presented a cheque for �250 to the Local RNLI Branch Society which was received on behalf of the branch by Kelly Brock.

Affiliated Clubs and Individual Members of the NFSA will have already received notification of the forthcoming EGM, via Royal Mail.

I urge you to please read and complete your postal ballot form, which must be returned to the NFSA Head Office no later than Wednesday 3rd December.

There is every need to support and ensure a smooth transition for the future benefit of our sport.

This is the most significant change in representation of recreational sea angling to have occurred during my lifetime.
