Looking for love

What a hot day down the lake. The fish are in spawning mode and fishing was rock hard. Paul Jay even blanked on peg 7 :O

The lake is covered with white willow also and there was hardly any wind today to to make things harder.

Today’s winner and only angler to break the ton barrier was Brian Hall fishing from peg 22. He caught on the meat down the edge on the right. Well done

If anyone wants to congratulate Paul Jay on his win, you will find him on Peg 18 at Rolfs lake ready for Wednesday’s match 😀
The 2 endpegs certainly were the place to be today with both ends of the lake black with fish cruising in the sun. Paul Corsini bagged himself a PB match weight todayas well, Well done Paul.. Hopefully it will stay warm enough so the carp can get the spawning out the way.

Gary Horne Invitational Match. 12th May 2012

Gary Horne, fresh from Egypt.

Gary Horne has 2 matches a year down the lake and today was the first one. 23 of Gary’s friends turned up at the lake hoping for a few fish. The weather at the start of the match was quite sunny but rain was forecast for later in the day.

A nice start to the day

Getting ready for the draw

Dive in quick ...

 

Nick Horne does not fish the lake very often but always seems to draw peg 18 or 32. Guess where he was today….

Nick on peg 32 again 😀

 

The fishing today was very patchy, people would have a few fish and then have to wait ages for a bite. It was hard to put a good run of fish together. People were having to swap and change swims to get the fish. While the sun was out the top end of the big lake was black with cruising and topping fish. Steve on peg 34 was the only person catching steadily through the match.

Looking down the carpark bank towards 32

 

20 minutes before the end of the match we had a storm hit the lake. The wind picked up and it rained very heavily. Everyone and everything was soaked, it lasted about 30 minute and then the sun came back up and the lake went flat calm in time for the weigh in…bloody typical.

Monday Open Match

Paul Jay continues his Monday open matches after last weekend’s Bank holiday match. Today only 4 anglers turned up but were rewarded with a ton plus weight each. Paul was left peg 32 in the bag and started on his 8 meter line towards and empty peg 8 on 8mm banded pellet. He was catching chub, skimmers and carp. Paul Corsini on peg 28 was catching on the tip and put a good run of fish together. Mick Chappell on peg 9 was having some fun in the bush and lost 2 rigs in the tree somehow Paul Jay tells me 😀 Michael Corsini on peg 10 just pipped his dad today for another father-son victory and came second overall too.
