Rolfslake Bank Holiday Monday Open 5th May 2014.
Steve Wilson make it two wins in three days with a new PB.
John tells me there were only 8 anglers on todays match but they all had a great days fishing with the 8 anglers averaging 193lb each in what was bagging fest.
The winner today was Steve Wilson fresh from his win on Saturday and this time from peg 8 where Steve fished down the track fishing pellet feeding pellet to catch his mixed bag with carp to double figures in his final weight and new PB of 303-14 { very well done Steve }. In second place was lake owner John Bennett who today showed what he can do if he draws a half decent peg and today peg 5 was that peg with plenty of big carp coming from his short range line and John ended up 8lb clear of third place with his weight of 237-07. In third place was Micheal Corsini down on peg 40 at the bottom of the small lake and who worked hard putting together a mixed bag of fish for yet another 200lb weight today this time 229-07.
Mick Wilkinson on peg 4 had a mixed day with breaking two top kits ,catching a PB common carp at Rolfs of 21lb and catching 63lb of bream in his final weight of 229-07 { well done Mick }.
With the weather being settled i expect the first 400lb weight to come out of Rolfs for a few years in the next two weeks with of course the right angler on the right peg as the carp are really feeding well but so are the bream as we have had weights in the last few days of 38lb , 40lb and now 63lb for anglers mainly fishing for carp so a suprise 100lb of silvers could be on the cards as these fish average about 3lb a piece and love pellet at the moment so who knows.
