Day: 26 February 2011

 

Heavy rain over the last week has made things very mucky down the lake and also resulted in the water level coming up over the platforms again, however the fishing is good with a lot of carp topping all over the lake and silvers everywhere.

Dave Whiteman makes it two victories in a week.

With a few more anglers coming down to the lake for the midweek opens, today they were going to be greeted with another horrid day of rain with the lake water over the platforms but the match anglers and the pleasure anglers were still going to catch a few fish today.

With the club matches due to start in the next four weeks or so and the chances of fishing Rolfslake at the weekend being restricted to the odd few and with the Spring league and the Easter Festival also either in play or coming soon the Wednesday opens will be your main chance to fish  this brilliant lake.

With the usual suspects down the lake the anglers were drawn in the big lake with the pleasure anglers in the small lake and from what John tells me was that in what ended a close match the winner today was lake regular Dave Whiteman who made it two victories in a week this time fishing peg 16 on the motorway bank. Dave used a combination of the tip and the pole fished with corn and pellet and was rewarded with carp in his final weight of 88-08 and first place. In second place was Frank Donaghie with 78-08 from peg 14 and Paul Jay was third with 62-08 from peg 62-08.

The interesting fact from todays match was Mick Lane who was fishing the LEFT bush on peg 13 and was rewarded with 21-00 of perch { John tells me Mick had 7 perch over 2lb } in his overall weight of 32-00 fishing maggot at 3 metres.
