THE Oliver family ruled the roost when Yarnton & District AC got their summer league under way at Barford St Michael.
Despite a number of competitors failing to complete the event, Pete Oliver – on the favoured Peg 1 – caught roach on maggot, alternating between two lines, for a winning weight of 5lb 4oz.
A memorable day was completed with sons Harry, second with 3lb 5oz, and Jacob, third with 3lb, to complete an Oliver one-two-three.
