CHRIS Loveridge won among a good turnout of Malvern Anglers for their fifth spring league match in the sun at Leigh Sinton Fishery.
Despite initial expectations, most anglers failed to get a bite.
But after no luck for the first three hours Loveridge tempted three big carp up to 9lb using pole-fished luncheon meat near the inside bank for 23lb 2oz 0dr.
Just behind with 22-10, Frank Edwards also caught three big carp using maggots fished close to the island.
Lee Harman was third with 11-10 while the only other two to weigh in were Richard Webster on 9-4 and Dave Harris on 3-14.
