A closer shot of the 3lb 5oz Codling.
Above is a photo of Trevor Rooney. The picture was taken in November 1975 (2 Weeks before Tony's Tackle Shop Open). Therefore the picture was taken by Bob Clark outside his well known tackle shop on Langney Road, Eastbourne.
Trevor landed the Cod the night before, during a Trade Union Club angling section competition. On the scales it weighed 21lb 8oz.
Trevor was fishing 2 beaches West of the Langney Point outfall, the Cod picked up his Lugworm bait on a Size 2 Limerick hook.
Trevor had no car then, he had a scooter (a Lambretta GT200). He had to tie the Cod across the spare tyre rack.
Happy Days!!
Trevor Rooney caught these 2 Grey Mullet, 5lb 14oz and 4lb 9oz, while fishing on top of the Princes Park Outfall Pipe.He ground baited with mashed bread, and used bread flake on a light quiver rod. The largest Mullet actually ran up the pipe, but Trevor held on, and it came back out. Photo by Nick May.
Richard Cowderoy with a 6lb Bass caught at Langley Point.
Tony Kirrage with 3 very nice Bass and made the front page of the "Angling Times" in April 1981, the headline printed with the photo read, "Eastbourne Tackle Dealer and Sea Match Angler looks pleased after taking these 3 Bass from the Sugar Loaf on Eastbourne Beach".
The Weights are 9lb 1oz, 8lb 5oz and 7lb 14oz.
These were all caught in a 3 hour session and also included a silver eel of over 2lbs.

Tony Kirrage caught this lovely Plaice, a whopping 4lb 2oz from the shore, winning the Alan Ray Open with £1000.00 prize money which he shared with his mates.
Ian Hopper with a 4lb 8oz Bass, this was caught during Keith Erridge's Flounder match on the River Ouse in April 2009, it couldn't be counted in the match, but a very nice fish to catch.

Ben Blackford with a 4lb 5oz 4dr Codling

Steve Frost with a 7lb 4dr Bass, sadly this fish was caught during a Cod & Whiting Competition, so nothing was won with it, typical.
Steve Frost got it right this time, this specimen Flounder, weighed 2lb 2oz 8dr, it helped him win the OFFICERS CUP on Sunday 17th January 2010, it was also steve's personal best flounder, his very first specimen fish, and a NEW CLUB RECORD. Also, in the same catch of fish was a 1lb 9oz flounder (see picture below), and 2 smaller flounders, total weight was 4lb 8oz.

Rod Reynolds had been out of beach fishing for 2 years, in March Rod came back to beach fishing and joined, On his 1st Competition he stitched us all up, not only did he win the competition, but, he won it in style with this fine 6lb 4oz cod.
Trust Tony Kirrage to go one better, the competition after Rod Reynolds caught his cod, Tony had to beat it, by catching this really great 8lb 2oz 2dr Cod.
