Rolfslake Wednesday Open 6th March 2013.

The sun shines at last.

John tells me that it was busy down the lake with people fishing the open match, also there was a club match as well with the anglers from Witney AC down today and also a couple of pleasure anglers in the small lake.

The weather was warm to start with a slight breeze blowing into the big lake which did trigger the fish into having a feed today but later in the match when it the clouds came over it got much colder and the bites were hard to come by. The story of todays match was that anglers were into fish quite quickly today with also a few lost { John alone lost 5 on peg 18 } but as the match went on it got harder but at least the fish were moving around for a change.

Todays winner was inform angler and lake regular Kev Dolton who today was on motorway bank peg 13 and Kev had an enjoyable day fishing long down the edge to his right fishing on the deck using corn hookbait to catch a hard earned 12 carp for 100-03 and first place { well done Kev }. In second place was Dave Whiteman who was on the opposite bank this time peg 24 and Dave was also into carp fishing pole and corn for a mainly carp net of 76-03 followed in third place by Andy Rayment who fished the waggler and corn and also caught carp for his final weight of 47-07.

The other big battle was father against son { Paul and Micheal Corsini } and this time junior Micheal had no answer to dads fishing skills as Paul claimed the spoils with his weight of 35-09 to Micheals 26-02 { well done Paul }

John has asked me to remind all our visitors we have an Open match this Saturday draw 10 fish 11-4 . Please phone John to confirm if you are planning to come down as these weekend opens will be limited soon as we approach the Easter festival and the club match bookings which will start in earnest from April most weekends until October leaving the Wednesday opens as the main opportunity to fish matches down the lake.

John also has 4 places to cover for this Sundays pairs series as 4 anglers are unavailable to fish , again please phone John if you are interested.

Thank for reading John, Simon and Eddie.
