A very tough day down the lake

Today saw 7 anglers down the lake on a sunny mild day which was a bit of a suprise as it was probably the best weekend to date this year. The lake has currently been suffering with increased cold water covering the platforms and John and Pauline have been working very hard trying keeping the lake at a reasonable level. With the water being quite cold at the moment it seems it is affecting the carp into not feeding in any numbers at the moment and the lake was motionless during the match with no signs of carp in the big lake except for Kev Dolton who managed to catch the only carp of the day from peg 13 by fishing into the bay near peg 11.

The winner today was lake owner John Bennett who after searching for carp by fishing the bomb and corn then decided to fish for silvers and was rewarded with roach and at least 5 big perch to nealy 2lb plus a bream in his hard earned weight of 20-01 and well clear of the chasing pack. The race for second was won by Kev Dolton who managed a late carp to keep him just ahead of Doug Robinson with his weight of 13-12 to Dougs 13-01.

With the Easter festival fast approaching we expect the carp to switch on in the next couple of weeks as the weather is due to be more settled and the club match that was held on Sunday was won with 40lb plus and there were carp caught by a few of the anglers so things are starting to look up.

The festival places are now full with John now adding names to the reserve list so please can the remaining anglers that have booked please confirm your places in the next week or so { thank you }.

Andy and Anthony are crowned Rolfslake Pairs Champions 2015.

Today saw the final round of the Rolfslake pairs competition and barring a miracle or a total distaster Andy Quarmby and Anthony Flint should be crowned champions due to their consistent results the previous 5 rounds where the points scoring and more importantly no blow outs by either angler meant they were carrying an 11 points cushion into round 6. The big battle today would be to see who was going to come second between Steve and Doug and John and Kev as there was only 3 points gap and all to play for.

The good thing about this league was you knew exactly what you needed to target and what pegs gave you a realistic chance of good points as in the carp section pegs 18 and 22 had been the most consistent and 38,32 and 13 were required in the silvers section.

Todays match followed the normal pattern in this league of Anthony and Andy scoring a big 13 points with Anthony winning the silvers section from peg 32 with 24-03 and Andy placing fourth in the carp section to win  the league and after a tense battle John and Kev  managed to claw 2 points back on Steve and Doug but fell 1 point short leaving Steve and Doug to claim second place.

Congratulation to all the anglers for fishing the league in good spirits and to all the anglers that filled in as cover for missing anglers.

Congratulations to Andy and Anthony for winning the league.

And finally a big thanks to John and Pauline for running the league and being great hosts to all the anglers.

Thanks for reading John, Simon and Eddie.
