Day Two
It was another glorious day on all of the lakes, we have been lucky on the weather front and have all been treated to some Cornish autumn sunshine. It is only day two but the air is full of determination and the competition is fierce. Yesterdays weigh sheets were put up during the draw and every peg & position on the lake was scrutinised to the last ounce.

These anglers mean business! Trelawney & PythonOnce again the fishing on Trelawney dominated the section and produced the top three winners but the fishing on Python cannot be faulted, the wides are producing some great weights.

Day Three
The fishing today was generally harder on all the lakes, despite a cloudless sky it was very cold and we had a light frost and with low pressure that hampered everyone’s fishing, it also didn’t help that the sun was very bright casting a glare over many of the lakes and there was not a breath of wind anywhere.

The fish are not feeding a lot and many anglers were over feeding their pegs and the fish were simply not interested. Although the day was slower there were still plenty of bites had – has it affected the top ten – read on for more information.

White Acres Maver Festival 2005 – The Winners
What an exciting week and an even more exciting final day, the points and positions have been so tight this week it has been a mad dash for the winning line from day one. There were only 3 points separating the top 10 results, it was so close no one was 100% of their final position; it was down to the very wire and went on dropped points and weight.

The Winner
John Bradshaw and newcomer to the White Acres festival circuit emerged victorious in this years Maver Festival taking the 2005 title. John is a well deserved winner who has fished strongly & consistently over the week to give him a final result of 36 points (lowest points dropped) 324lb 12oz (minus lowest days weight) John picks up a £3000 bonus as well as tackle from Maver

Second
Tony Wynnick takes second overall on the festival, Tony has had a great week, it has been nerve wracking time climbing up the top ten and then dropping back to second, his final result was 35 points (lowest points dropped) and a weight of 253lb 4oz (minus lowest days weight) Tony cannot - and is not the type to grumble though and is thoroughly happy with his £1500 cheque and new Maver tackle.

Third
Dean Barlow takes third position also with 35 points (lowest points dropped) with 229lb 12oz (minus lowest days weight) Dean has quietly crept up through the top ten during the week by fishing strongly and securing section wins and seconds leaving him third overall.

Overall Top Twenty
So this is the end of another successful White Acres festival, massive thanks to our sponsor Maver and to all of the anglers that took part – see you in 2006! Full festival results coming soon.
