Rolfslake Open Match. 8th May 2010
Only 10 turned up today for the match as the weather was quite poor. Drizzle all day and a Cold blustery N/E wind going across the lake making presentation very tricky today.
Today match winner Ramsay King fishing from peg 4 had started in the margins and was finding it tricky so cast out on the tip rod with punched meat and never looked back. He also beat his personal best match weight by more than 70lb. A big well done to Ramsay King. He also gets Peg King for peg 4 and almost takes the lake king title.
The rest of the weights round the lake are quite spread out. John Bennett fishing peg 21 lost a 18lb+ carp on the whistle costing him the section, unlucky John.
| Name | Peg | Weight |
| Ramsay King | 4 | 258-12 |
| Dave Whiteman | 7 | 163-0 |
| Robby (Ginger) | 8 | 102-0 |
| Chris Loveridge | 19 | 100-2 |
| John Bennett | 21 | 92-4 |
| Doug Richardson | 14 | 89-0 |
| Adam | 13 | 88-4 |
| Jamie Gilland | 9 | 85-8 |
| Kev Doulton | 18 | 65-8 |
| Barry Parker | 16 | 46-4 |
Hope the weather picks up for next week for the Wednesday open and the Jinx Series which starts next Saturday.
No Open match next week because Starting next Saturday (15th May) is Malc Doyle’s Jinx series. 20 anglers battle through a series of 6 matches (plus one bonus night match) at Rolfs Lake. All the anglers have a few aims, mainly beating their matches weights and PB fish but mainly NOT getting Minxed by Gemma Doyle.
Anyone getting MINXED this year will be treated to having to wear this hat for the next match. With the amount of camera’s around the lake it’s something no man would want 😀 Steak (Steve Akal) has the honour of wearing the hat for the first match as he got beat by Gem at the Maggotdrowning.com fund raiser match at Lindholme Lake 😀
Reports for these matches will be appearing on here so check back next week for all the gossip.
Thanks for reading, Si and Eddie.
