Rolfslake Good Friday Open 18th April 2014
Sunny cold day down the lake.
John tells me today that there was a good attendance down the lake but a cold north westerly wind slowed the fishing down a bit but still most of the anglers had a good days sport.
Todays winner was Steve Wilson who was fishing the small lake peg 4 where most of the fish were on the Wednesday match and Steve caught mostly carp in his weight of 175-05 and a long way ahead of second place [well done Steve ]. There was a real scrap for second place in which 7 anglers were in contention and which was eventually won by Middy sponsored angler Andy Quarmby with 111-01 and 11 ounces ahead of Paul Jay in third place.
Good luck to the anglers fishing the next three days.

Thanks for reading John, Simon and Eddie.
It was one of those “What if, days.” I’m thinking, what if all my Perch hadn’t escaped before weigh in.
But apart from show off Steve putting in an excellent performance on 4 the next 6 were all within 4lb of each other.
Chris T had a fine net of Bream, 60lb+ I believe.
Hope the weather stays good for the Festival and everyone has a good time.
Fingers crossed I can make it again on Wednesday.
