A really cold day down the lake.

Today was a very cold day down the lake with high cold water levels slowing the fish right down.

For two and a half hours not one of the anglers had caught any fish which prompted Pete Archer to cup in 6 balls of SoSimple Baits BMG groundbait.

This really did the trick as soon as he started fishing again he was into fish. Using single maggots and worms Pete caught 3 big carp and 6lb of silvers for his winning weight of 40-04.

In second place was Graham Ridgley who had 4 carp for 31lb on the bomb closely followed by Terry Winstone with 3 carp for 24lb.

John has now opened up the remaining places for the Easter Festival so if you are interested please give John a call.

Today’s Winner Pete Archer (Guru)

A Hurricane down the lake.

Today saw a low attended open match probably due to the fierce winds of upto 80mph.

There was also a club match going on today which John had allocated the big lake for them to use.

In first place and the first winner of 2018 was John Bennett on peg 7 who managed to catch 5 carp and also lose a few for his weight of 47-04.

John caught 1 carp on the tip and 4 on the pole fishing maggot or corn hookbait and feeding pellet.

Last match of 2017.

Today saw the end of fishing down at Rolfslake for 2017. There were 13 anglers on today’ match hoping for one last enjoyable days fishing.

John had pegged all the anglers in the big lake on the basis that the deeper water would give the anglers a few bites.

The story of today’ match was the carp had pretty much switched off except on end pegs 32 and 8 and for the rest it was just a case of targeting the silvers.

The winner overall and completing a very good set of match wins was Andy Rayment fishing 32 peg by  the cafe.

For pretty much 3 and a half hours Andy only had about 4lb to show for his efforts, but his last 3 fish were a 4lb bream and 17lb carp followed by a 9lb carp for his total weight of 34-02.

Today’s winner Andy Rayment.

On peg 10 in no carp bay was John Beasley who was catching silvers pretty much from the off , and by fishing maggots put a great 21-15 to win the silvers pool.

Top Silvers weight
John Beasley 21-15.

Second in Silvers
Anthony Flint 18-07.

Top carp weight today fell to me on peg 8 fishing in the deep water catching 10 small carp and one of 15lb for a total of 17-01.

Top Carp weight
EddieT-Green 17-01.

For those looking for a good days silver fishing then Rolfslake will always get you a few bites with a chance of a carp.
