King of the lake for 2013 smashed by Andy Quarmby.

John tells me that today when he got out of the caravan the entire lake was cover in ice up to 10mm due to the minus 3 degrees temperature last night.

His first job was to board the boat and break the ice up giving the anglers half a chance of a good days fishing which is a shame after a promising start to the festival, but as the first anglers arrived most of the swims were fishable { well done John }. The day started with bright sunshine but due to the floating ice the match was delayed by an extra 15 minutes to give the anglers a chance to set up and clear some floating ice out of the lake. Just as the all in was called the weather changed as it got cloudier and much colder and with a swirling wind made for fishing the long pole a much more difficult option.

John also tells me that a few anglers were into fish straight away and that there were quite a few carp lost too as it was very cold making it a challenge for the anglers with cold hands and there were also some tackle breaks making it also an expensive day. The small lake again was a challenge for those anglers targeting the carp and yesterdays top two anglers { Kevan Orr and Geoff Edwards} on day one slumped to 3rd and 5th in A section. The winner of this section was Micheal Corsini fishing peg 2 on the bottom bank and Micheal bounced back from his disaster from last place in C section on day one to first place with 66-06 { well done Micheal }.

B section was a straight battle between Johnny Broadbent on peg 8 and Derek Hammond on peg 32 as they both caught carp and in the end Johnny just stayed ahead to win the section with his weight of 50-05 to Derek’s 41-11.

The main battle and drama happened in C section where the fish had gathered in the deep part of the lake pegs 24,26 , 14 and 16 which is where they hide when it gets cold and Middy sponsored angler Andy Quarmby defied the conditions to catch carp to double figures and smash the the lake king for 2013 with his fantastic weight for these temperatures of 214-05 .

Andy caught his carp at long range 16 metres fishing with maggots on the deck which was quite a feat considering the windy conditions and with his section win today gives him a perfect score of two points and the current lead of the festival.

The drama in this section was at the end of the match just as the all out was being called Danny Deakin hooked a big carp in which he was given the 15 minutes overtime allowed to get the fish in the net but with his elastic being underpowered he could not get it close to the bank in time and he failed by one minute to get it in the net and the fish did not count although it went 15-10.

Had Danny got the fish in time it would of affected the top of the leader board as the 2nd, 3rd and 4th anglers were only seperated by 3-03 in this section { good effort though Danny }.

The festival enters its final day tomorrow and it is still wide open for any of the top seven anglers to win the three day event so please come back tomorrow for the final results.

The Rolfslake fish decide to have a feed today. 

Today saw the start of the 2013 Rolfslake Easter Festival and the expectations were that the fish would finally have a feed as in the preceeding weeks the lake had fished really hard.

After a discussion about payouts at the start due to a small turnout than expected the anglers from far and wide got down to the business of drawing their section sequence for the next three days and who their opposition were going to be. The festival is decided on points with the winner of each section getting one point and the last in section gets 6 points ,so the angler with the lowest points score over three days wins the festival.

As i arrived towards the end of the match John tells me the anglers were greeted with a bright warm day turning cold and windy towards the end { i can vouch for that as i was freezing just doing the weights }. Dave Whiteman on 8 was the first to catch a carp on 8 closley followed by Danny Deakin on 7 but for the rest it was a case of being patient and hoping the carp would turn up. On peg 38 Anthony Flint was giving a great demonstration of catching silvers fishing at 13 metres as i had never seen a pole been shipped back so fast as Anthony caught over 100 silver fish for his final weight of 42-05 which did include one small carp.

In the main lake Andy Quarmby was catching all that swam as he caught carp fishing long {16 metres } down his right hand edge and bream and perch fishing 13 metres out in front for his weight of 78-12. Chris Telling on 10 was into a run of bream by feeding worn and even managed to catch a carp to boot but as it got calmer the bited were harder to come by.

The main battle for top spot today was between Geoff Edwards on 16 and Kevan Orr { Hall Bait an Tackle } on 24 straight opposite who caught big carp between them. Kevan was fishing long straight out fishing maggot for his 8 carp to big double figures which was even more impressive considering the windy conditions for his final weight of 91-02 and just one small carp in front of Geoff { Reading Angling Centre } who was fishing corn at 16 metres but Geoff caught 7 carp but they were slightly bigger for his final weight of 87-10.

Normally on these festivals the fishing gets better on days 2 and 3 as the fish get used to anglers fishing all around the lake and putting feed in so i have a good feeling that the weights and weather will improve and i think that all the anglers are still in with a chance of victory as long as they have a plan B.

We will do our best to keep you all informed with the weights as quickly as possible and will try also to get some photos as well.
