Easter Festival Day 2. Draw and Hourly Updates. 8th April 2012

 

The rain fell overnight at the lake but this meant that again the frost was kept at bay. There was some drizzle at the draw but it’s brightening up ready for the anglers today.

Someone (no names) went out on the pop last night and has a very bad head today and turned the carpark at Rolfslake into a disco when he came back early in the morning, local bouncer Dai Thomas had a job waking him up from his drunken slumber despite knocking the window. It’s going to be a very long match for ****** hehe.

 

Jeff Edwards, current Leader has had a good draw today on peg 13. Second place Chris Telling was not so lucky pulling out peg 35 which is not a favoured peg but can throw up good weights from time to time, if anyone can get a good weight from it Chris can. Third place Mick Lane has drawn ok too with peg 15.

Right on to the draw for today….

Update1. 12.40pm

Its flat calm down the lake and cloudy. The little lake seems to have had a good start again like yesterday but slowed down already.

Phil Powell on 6 and Chris Telling on 35 were having a sword fight both fishing 16 meters and fishing the same swim virtually. Festival Leader Jeff Edwards on peg 13 had a brilliant start but they were all foul hookers and he lost a lot of fish but despite this he has managed to catch 5 carp.

The lads on the car park bank are fishing too far out and struggling it seems, Michael Corsini on peg 26 has just moved onto an 8 meter line and started catching, the others may follow suit if he keeps on catching. Phil on 6 has switched from his girly elastic after being led on a merry dance round the small lake and under his platform by a resident carp lol.

Andy Johnstone on peg 4 is hooking plenty of fish but loosing them which has give him some hope as peg 4 yesterday was pretty poor.

Scores on the board so far….

Section 1..

Matt Smith, Peg 34 – 6 carp

Mick Lane, Peg 15 – 4 carp

Mick Hughes and Steve Waters, Peg 23 and 17 – 1 carp

Section 2..

Joff Rogers, Peg 2 – 5 carp

Jeff Edwards, Peg 13 – 5 carp

Curtis Tranter and Mark Malin, peg 7 and 9 – 3 carp

Section 3..

Phil Powell, Peg 6 – 3 carp

Chris Telling, Peg 35 – 2 carp

Wez Hillier and John Draper, Peg 38 and 40 – 1 carp

 

A good start again, will it slow down again like yesterday, check back in an hour. Thanks.

 

Update 2.. 1.44pm

The sun is shining and its flat calm. Fish have started popping all over the lake and there are a lot of fish on the surface. Much the same as yesterday the fishing has slowed down again. Clive on form peg 8 is really struggling and Curtis on peg 7 is fishing long and and catching and losing a lot of fish. Dai on Section winning peg 21 is also struggling today loosing fish.

Dave Wightman again is a late starter being the only person not to have caught a carp yet. He was much the same yesterday and then stormed ahead in the last hour.

Section 1..

Matt on Peg 34 has 9 carp.

Mick on Peg 15 has 5 carp and is playing another

Michael and Steve on Peg 26 and 17 both have 2 carp

Section 2..

Jeff on Peg 13 now has 7 carp and loosing loads.

Joff and Mark Pegs 2 and 9 both have 6 carp.

Andy on Peg 14 has 5 carp.

Section 3..

Phil Peg 6 has 4 carp

Chris on Peg 35 has 3 carp

The rest of the little lake all have 1 carp too.

 

Update 3. 2.40pm.

The little lake has died and everything stays the same in there except while talking to John Matt and Chris telling land another fish. It has now clouded over and a little bit of rain has fallen on the lake. As I was speaking to John the wind has picked up and literally people started to catch whilst on the phone. Mick Lane landed one and hooked another, Dai on 21 was playing a fish and so was Ernie, Andy Q and Jon Walker. Clive on peg 8 is having a nightmare day by the looks of things.

Having seen Michael catching on the 8 meter line the rest of the car park bank did the same and managed a few fish.. Hopefully the way people were starting to catch we should have a better update next time.

Section 1..

peg 34 has 11 carp

peg 15 has 6 carp

peg 17 has 4 carp

Section 2..

peg 13 has 8 carp

peg 14 had 7 carp

peg 9 has 6 carp and was playing another

Section 3..

peg 6 still has 4 carp

peg 35 just caught another and now also has 4 cap

rest of the little lake still have 1 carp.

 

Last update before the results in an hour. Thanks.

 

Last update before the results. 3.35pm

Overcast and windy now which seems to have spurred the fish to go back down and have a munch. Andy Q on 14 has been potting big pots of bait out and fish straight over it to get a good reaction from the carp. Dai on 21 is getting plenty of action now but also loosing a lot of fish. Lurker Lane on 15 is catching Matt on 34 up quickly now getting plenty of bites. It seems a lot of fish have been lost today and that will be the story as the scales go round the lake I’m sure.

Section 1..

Matt on 34 has 15 carp.

Lurker Lane on 15 has 12 carp

Mick Hughes on 23 has 6 carp

Section 2..

Jeff and Mark Malin on 13 and 9 have 8 carp each.

Andy and Joff on 14 and 2 have 7 carp each.

Curtis on peg 7 has 7 carp.

Section 3..

Chris on 35  is doing the biz and has 7 carp

Phil on 6 still has 4 carp

Michael C on 29 has 4 carp also.
