Rolfslake Open 17th February 2013.
King Kev cleans up on both pools today.
Today was another low attended match due to the continued cold weather and the reluctance of the carp to feed at the moment which will come to an end sooner or later. We decided to all fish the big lake on the car park bank as the motorway bank was still flooded form all the rain and snow from the previous week so it was from pegs 22 to 32 today.
Todays winner was Kev Doulton on end peg 32 by the gap betwwen the big and small lake and Kev was rewarded with a carp of 6-15 and 11-10 0f silvers for a grand total of 18-09 by fishing a couple of lines opposite peg 9 and long down the edge towards peg 33. Kev used a combination of maggots fished over groundbait to keep the fish coming and a rouge carp { the only one caught today } made an appearance to boost his weight in what was a hard earned win today { well done Kev}.
In second place was John Bennett on the other end peg peg 22 and after his first bonus fish a bream of about 4lb caught fishing long out in front John plundered the bush to his left catching small roach and one big perch all on red maggot for his weight of 8-08.
