ST HELENS angler Danny Sixsmith has won two matches with almost identical weights.

He weighed in 9lbs 14ozs 0drs of roach, rudd and perch, all caught on pole and caster, to win the Newton-le-Willows Anglers Association Harrys Tackle Trophy from peg 30 on the upper pound of the Sankey Canal.

And he needed just two ounces less of silver fish, again all caught on the pole, from Haydock Park Farm's Cow Hay Dam to win the club's disabled and over 60s weekly match from peg 6.

Other recent match winners are Ant Henthorn, Tony Fairclough and Jimmy Corkish.
