A respite from the Selby Canal saw the Mosella League move to the Aire and Calder Canal at Pollington on Saturday producing a very competitive third round, which Steve Richardson won by a whisker.

After drawing well at 410, The Tri-Cast Scunthorpe Tackle angler offered caster at eight metres to find 6lb 5oz of roach to record a half-ounce win over Woodside Tackle man Neil Rymer on the next peg.

Rymer pinned his faith on maggot and also took redfins to six ounces.
