FISHING AT THE LAKE OVER THE WEEKEND

11 comments

I HAVE DECIDED TO CANCEL TOMORROWS OPEN MATCH DUE TO THE EXSTREME OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES, I WILL BE GOING DOWN THE LAKE MID MORNING TO HAVE A LOOK AND BREAK SOME ICE.

THE THICKNESS OF THE ICE IS  NOT REALY A PROBLEM AS REGUARDS THE SPRING PAIRS MATCH AS WE HAVE BROKEN ICE IN MUCH COLDER CONDITIONS.

,HOWEVER WITH THE FORCAST OF SNOW DEPENDING ON WHICH WEATHER REPORT YOU LOOK AT, WITH A POSSIBLE 5 INCHES OR MORE I HAVE TO CONSIDER TRAVELLING CONDITIONS, I WOULD NOT LIKE TO PUT ANYBODY IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION, SO KEEPING A LOOK ON THE WEATHER REPORTS I WILL MAKE A DECISION BY 5-30 TOMORROW.

I WILL HOLD AN OPEN ON THE LAKE FOR THE INTREPID ( OR DAFT) ANGLERS WHO ARE DETERMINED TO GET OUT

Wednesday Open Match. 1st February 2012

A cold day down the lake today but strangely no ice on the lake despite minus temperatures.Very hard fishing today down the lake for the anglers.

Today’s winner Pete Archer has not been down the lake for a while but returned to take the win fishing from peg 28. Pete was using maggot on the pole trying for silvers but go plagued with those pesky carp.

Neil Riddy managed to catch 3 carp for his weight from last Sundays winning peg, Peg 13. Neil is currently the peg king for peg 13 so knows how to fish it but the carp had other idea’s today.

Completing the frame was Dave Wightman fishing from peg 10. Dave’s weigh was made up completely of silver fish, he also had 3 bonus skimmers to help build his weight.

 Results

     Pos Name Peg Weight
1 Pete Archer 28 29-8
2 Neil Riddy 13 20-8
3 Dave Wightman 10 14-8
4 John Bennett 24 9-8
5 John Draper 9 7-0

9 Anglers Fished.

Todays winner in Sunnier times down the lake. Pete Archer.

The temperature is set to drop further still and then start to rise again Saturday so hopefully it wont be too cold for everyone fishing the second round of the Spring Pairs League this Sunday.

There is an Open match this Saturday also.

Thanks for Reading, Eddie, John and Simon.
