The sun comes out at last .

Today John tells me that on arriving down the lake the anglers were greetedĀ  with carp cruising all around the lake as the sun had decided to put an appearance as it was warmer than it had been for some time { does that mean summer is coming ? }.

With the amount of carp cruising around the small lake it was decided that the small lake was going to be used today but with 9 anglers today peg 9 in the big lake would be included.

The day started sunny and warmish but after an hour the wind started to blow from the south west making it much colderĀ and started putting the fish down further in the water but John also tells me at this point the big lake looked perfect as Graham Ridgley who was pleasure fishing on his own was having a nice day catching carp on the tip.

In first place today was lake owner John Bennett who had drawn would you believe it end peg 9 andĀ he had an enjoyable day catching from all areas of his peg 8 carp to 19lb on his favoured corn fished on the deck feeding micro pellets for his weight of 79-08 { well done John }. Hot on John’s heels was Middy backed angler and Easter festival winner Andy Quarmby who was 2 pegs away from John peg 7 and Andy also caught 8 carp but they were much small which gave him a final weight of 55-13 but well clear of Mick Jones in third as Mick weighed 22-04.

As the weather continues to get warmer i am sure that the carp will get down to having a proper feed and when this happens the weights start to rocket to 200lb plus so it could happen this weekend as the weather reports it could be at least 15 degrees which is 14 degrees warmer than it has been.

Another Wet day down the lake. Is there no end to the rain…

Malc Doyle had arranged an open match for today. 12 anglers turned up and within minutes it was snowing again. Every weekend has been rubbish weather so far this year, hopefully the weather will turn soon.

Despite the weather everyone was in high spirits and the draw got underway.

WEDNESDAY OPEN MATCH. 26TH SEPTEMBER 2012

 

Today saw only 6 anglers down the lake due to the adverse weather. The anglers had a real mixed bag today with Heavy rain, Thunder and lightening. The lake level has rose 2 inches since Sunday John tells me.
Todays winner and ABOUT TIME was John Draper who also managed a PB carp of 20lb 8oz also. John Fished 9 meters down the right hand edge and caught on pellet and corn. A big well done John.
Second today was Dai Thomas on peg 24 who had 6 fish in the first hour but could not keep them coming.
Completing the fram was Lake owner John Bennett on peg 32 and had a real struggle but managed to snare a few fish for 3rd place.
