Andy Quarmby wins again.

On arriving at the lake today I was greeted with a full car park due to match anglers and the 6 pleasure anglers cars so at least the fish were going to be feed.

Today was sunny with a little breeze blowing into the big lake and if you were on the motorway bank you were warm but on the car bank you definitley were not.

In a very close match today for first place was a battle between Andy Quarmby and Neil on pegs 32 and 8 , so it was going to be who could stop the fish going through the gap which was eventually won by Andy with his weight of 204-00 to Neil’s 189-04.

Andy fished peg 32 both out in front and down the edge to his left using pellet feeding pellet

which got Andy a good run of fish to double figures  in his weight of 204lb (well done Andy ).

Neil however had a harder job as he was fishing 16 metres across the gap by was also rewarded with big fish and also a couple of 4lb chub which you do not see that often again fishing pellet for his weight of 189-04.

Completing the frame on the next peg was Gary Kelsey on peg 7 and Gary used a combination of meat and pellet feeding pellet for his weight of 158-00.

Just to remind all our visitors there is a match this this Bank holiday Monday so if you are interested please phone John to book in.

The fish are on the move.

Todays match was held in the big lake but there were fish every where today with every peg in the small lake either having fish in the margins or up in the water so signs were good for all the anglers. The fastest fish hooked today was in 2 seconds and eventually landed by Andy Quarmby on peg 24 even before most of the anglers had even shipped out so things were looking good for Andy as he eventually went on to win the match with his weight of 177-04 fishing a combination of long fishing shallow and 7 metres fished on the deck both lines fished with 8mm hard banded pellet feeding 3 bags of pellet to get the fish feeding properly.

Andy had fish to double figures which always helps and also a couple of bream but missed a few bites due to the amount of fizzing bubbles in his swim but a slight adjustment of his tactics kept the fish coming to claim the peg king off Johnny Broadbent { well done Andy }. The close battle for second was between Paul Jay on 9 and Andy Rayment on 16 both fishing corn and pellet feeding pellet but Paul was fishing the bush to his right on 9 and Andy was fishing 16 metres shallow and after 5 hours the two were seperated by 11lb with Paul having 133-09 to Andy’s 122-07 which included a beast of 21lb plus.

The lake fished alot better than of late with there being 5 ton plus weights and two just under in with the Jinx league fishing their two day match this weekend and the fish in feeding mode i think their match should be a cracker.

Just a few more photos from today.

 The crocodile and his mate make an appearance today.

Today Matchfishingscene visited Rolfslake today and the 13 anglers were greeted with a sunny day and plenty of carp sunbathing around the lake and for some even the pike were visible but fishing was consistent with last Wednesdays match.

Todays match was won by Paul Robinson who was fishing peg 4 in the small lake and Paul managed to put together a good bag of carp  for the match win closely followed by Jon Walker as the only other angler to weigh over a ton.

Matt Edwards was kept company by two of the big pike that had come into the shallows to spawn and if you look closely you can see his mate below him.

I have updated the peg kings for 2013 for those anglers that are precious to see if they have made it onto the peg kings/ Queen board.

Remember that the changes from last year are that it must be a open / club / league / festival that is fished by more than 10 anglers and club match secretaries must give to John a full set of results from their matches.

Since we set this up a couple of years ago and it started as a bit of fun for the anglers but last year it seemed to get serious as the anglers were desperate to get on the peg king board.

If you have the top weight of the year to date which currently is held by Middy sponsored Andy Quarmby with 214-05 then you get your picture on the home page banner.
