SWLT Brown Trout Masters 2024

SWLT Brown Trout Masters 2024

SWLT Brown trout masters round 3 at Roadford lake was the concluding round to end the series and crown the 2024 Brown Trout Masters champion.

The anglers were faced with varying weather, starting with little wind and calm water, then windy and overcast and finally bright sunshine and windy.

The participants met at the cafe car park at 07h30 for registration and collect their score cards and goodie bags courtesy of Turrall & Co Ltd

The event started at 08h00 and saw most of the fish being caught in the first 4 hours, with a few fish in the afternoon. A total of 29 Browns were caught and several perch. Finish time was 5pm and back to the main car park to workout the scores and hold the prize giving.

Kevin Sellar was the winner of the 3rd round with 7 nice browns and received a Cortland Limited Edition Peach Line and some goodies courtesy of Turrall & Co Ltd.

Philip Hoskin won the biggest fish with a stunning 46cm Brown and won a Cortland PRECISION SL line and goodies from Turrall & Co Ltd. Roger Truscott was biggest fish runner up and also equal most fish runner up with Wayne Thomas and shared some wonderful Lakedown Brewing Co. & Tap Room ale.

Roger Truscott was leading the series coming into round 3, with only Keith Burnett in 2nd having any realistic chance of upsetting the leader board. But overall placing 3rd to 6th changed about a lot during the day.

Roger built a big lead in the first round back in March at his local and beloved Colliford lake and showing his skills and knowledge in the 2 & 3rd rounds came out the overall winner and received the Trout Fishing South West Lakes Trust 2024 Brown Trout Master trophy and All waters 2025 season permit, great prizes for a very well deserved winner. Well done Roger.

Fluff Chuckers would also like the give a massive big thank you to YETI Europe , Turrall Flies and Lakedown Brewing Co  & tap room for your sponsoring of this series, it really wouldn’t be the same without your help.

We would also like to say this new series has been a good success. Like all Fluff Chuckers events the aim is to get like minded anglers together for fun on the water whatever your ability.

Yes there’s a competitive side to the day but fun is first, so you don’t need to feel you need to be a pro to take part.
