Today saw the traditional Easter Festival warm up match which according to John was difficult for some and ok for the others.

With carp cruising around in what will be C Section of the festival there were two ton weights from pegs 14 and 24.

The winner today but only just was Dan Blackwell on peg 24 who caught carp shallow and close in to record his winning weight of 104-06 .

Rolfslake Pairs Series Round 6 28th February 2016

Round 6 the final countdown.

Today saw the final round of the spring series where anyone of 3 teams were in with a chance of Champions glory.

Today saw the anglers greeted with a cold blustery day with the wind coming from the East which made long distance pole fishing quite difficult and with the colder weather it also slowed the carp from feeding in any numbers.

The story of the day was both Andy and Anthony and Dan and Gavin needed the long time leaders Steve and Derek to draw bad and not catch which rarely happens. Both the chasing teams drew quite well with Andy drawing peg 38 the scene of his shocking result from round 2 but today won the silver section with a great silver weight of 24-13. Andy’s partner Anthony had a real struggle catching a solitary carp 1 minute from the end which weighed 7-13 and with that their chance of glory disappeared .

That left only one team to try and catch the leaders ( Dan and Gavin )and quite oddly drew next to each on pegs 13 and 14 and although both caught fish they ended near midway in their respective sections for a total of 8 points.

That left Steve and Derek having to have a nightmare to lose the series but as it has been for the previous 5 rounds they drew fair pegs and made the most of them with Steve winning the carp section from peg 7 with 46-14 and Derek coming 4th in his section.

With their total of 5 points today they could not be caught and won a very competitive series to be crowned Rolfslake Spring Pairs Champions 2016 ( well done guys ).

Top silvers weight of the year set on today’s match.

Today saw a low attendance but what the anglers missed was a silver fishing masterclass by Drennan sponsored angler Steve Waters.

Steve fished peg 32 by the cafe a fished a variety of lines to catch a stunning bag of roach and about 12 bream to record the highest silvers weight of the year.

Steve caught on the deck fishing pellet for the bream and casters at various depths for the roach in his final bag of 63-02 and a bag any angler would be proud of.

In second place was Micheal Corsini who also had a great day on the silvers with his weight of 30-02 which included a solitary carp.

If you fancy a great day getting plenty of bites then get down to the lake a catch a super bag of silvers.

Todays winner Drennan sponsored Steve Waters.
