In the latter stages he switched to pole along the margins with corn on the hook and landed several bigger samples to lift his weight to a winning 176-06.
Harrison extends his run to three matches in a row at Makins landing over 180lb.

EVENT: WEDNESDAY ‘KOBRA’ OPENVENUE: LAKE TWO DYNAMITE MAKINSDATE: October 26Number of pegs: 25Although fishing followed a cold, clear night weights were generally lower than expected, with fish caught all round Makins Lake Two in the Wednesday KOBRA Open and over 40 lb required to make the top 10.

Daiwa Dorking have added the 2016 Match Fishing Team Championship to their extensive list of achievements…
Daiwa Dorking have won the Match Fishing Team Championship on the Warwickshire Avon at Evesham in emphatic style.
Team stalwart, and England International Will Raison explained: “Young Bradley Gibbons did us a grand job at the draw this morning, and pulled us out a great set of pegs – which is always a big help in a match like this!
“Fortunately, we have a brilliant set of anglers too, and although we talked things through in some detail it was very much a case of leaving our anglers to fish their pegs as they saw fit.
“In the first two sections, Simon Willsmore put together a cracking net of roach from Peg 6 and Michael Buchwalder did well to scratch very good points from Peg 20. I had a lovely day’s waggler fishing on Peg 35 and managed a nice net of chub, and Lee Edwards and Darren Davies did really well in the bottom two sections – so fortunately what we did paid off.
