2010 A Final Winner - John Slocket
The A Final was fished over a two day weekend match, which was a closed run thing, between John Slocket from Leyland and Peter Brown.
Both anglers opting to fish for silver fish as a sudden drop in temperature put the carp off the feed, the bags were made up of Roach, Ide and Skimmers.
John Slocket taking the over all win with a bag weight of 52lb 12oz collected a cheque for £1000 and Peter Brown second with a bag weight of 41lb 9oz
collected a cash prize of  £200
Both anglers used similar methods fishing up the water with caster and maggot.

A good effort by Craig Henderson from Dalbeattie finishing third with a bag weight of 29lb 4oz made up of mainly carp.
Craig fished the feeder from peg 11 on Queensberry using banded pellet on a Preston Innovations flat method feeder.
He nearly collected the £100 cash prize but was beaten to it by his wife Ashley.
Darren Ferguson from Motherwell after a disastrous 1st round on Saturday, calmed his nerve on Saturday evening\early morning
with copious quantities of alcohol, picking up £50 cash prize for 4th place over all.

The Series was fished over the six rounds which culminated in the A & B finals being fished over a further two days.
Everyone had a fantastic time with the banter being good, and much leg pulling for good measure, the competition was
excellent as weights came from no particular peg, some had big fish some had lots of fish, some had fish they could'nt stop
most lost as many as they landed.
The weather didn't help on most competition days we experienced extremes of conditions from 30 degrees full sun and flat calm
to high winds and very cold to torrential down pours, it was a real mixed bag. however the anglers did what they had to do, to try
and qualify for the A final, with a few surprises along the way.....but one things for sure, it was one the countries top pay outs for a
competition with the prize pot in being in excess of £3000.

The sponsors for the event were Preston Innovations, The Queensberry Hotel, Annan, and of course ourselves Broom Fisheries
We would like to thank Mick Slater of Preston Innovations for supporting the Broom Series again this year.
Likewise Roger and Lisa of The Queensberry Hotel for giving us a special deal on the accommodation, and for putting up with the utter
cobblers that anglers talk when at any bar......
Last but not least we would like to thank the Broom Series anglers, who throughout the series have travelled a long way but have always been competitive,
innovative, good humoured and pleasure to have on the premises. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!
