2008 + 2009 Norrkoping - will 119.5 kilos be bettered in 2010?

In 2008 and 2009 the weekend bream festivals did not fish to its known potential.
Before 2008 the best weight recorded was 119.5 kilos by Stefan Holst of the Jokers angling club.
Weights in 2008 reached 76 kilos and in the 50's for 2009, even though thro 2008 and 2009 most people averaged 35-45 kilos each, it still did'nt throw up the weights that this canal can give.
