Leicester Sensas sponsored, river specialist, Roger Marlow, made it a hat-trick of River Soar titles taking the 2011 championship with 5Kg 280g of roach and perch from an out of sorts river around the Sutton Bonnington area, near Nottingham.

Roger pole-fished maggot, with fish from 2oz to 8oz making up the bulk of his catch.

Not only is this Roger’s third Soar title win but he becomes the first man to win it two years in succession, having also beaten last years’ class field to the 2010 championship.
