Ukraine Charity Match.
51 anglers attended the match paying £20 each and numerous others paid the entry fee despite non attendance.
We were also gifted money by people on the beach when they realised what we were up to.
Fishing one hour up and three down in calm, bright conditions in April this wasn't going to be a spectacular but fish were caught and we managed to divvy out the prizes none the less.
This was a longest fish wins match with second and third longest counting as the tie breaker.
