Rolfslake Wednesday Open 18th April 2018
A lovely warm day down the lake.
After a 270 mile journey to get todays match it was great to see a full car park for the midweek match.
John had decided the anglers were going to fish in the festival sections and the anglers were going to fish for an overall prize then first and second in section.
After the indifferent weather of late today was really warm 25 degrees, which brought most of the fish to the surface and then proving tough to catch.
Today’ match was decided on a fish for fish battle between Gary Donachie on peg 8 and Neil Riddy on peg 34 in the small lake.
Gary fished a combination of spots in his swim and caught the majority across at 16 metres for his total of 17 carp.
Neil caught his fish down the rope at 13 metres and Neil also suffered lost fish and also ended up with 17 fish but slightly bigger to win today’s match with 130-00.
Neil’s detailed report can be read on his Facebook page.
Some photos from today being posted later.
