Wednesday Open. 23rd June 2010
Today’s open saw a hot and sunny day at the lake. Conditions were perfect for some big weights and that’s exactly what happened.
Mark Newbold fishing from peg 28 caught fish to 17lb including a 17-4 mirror carp by fishing paste at 8m. John Bennett fishing from peg 32 also had some big fish John was fishing the bush with paste and pellet to catch fish up to 16lb.
Mark eventually came out on top to become the new Lake King with a fantastic weight.
| Name | Peg | Weight |
| Mark Newbold | 28 | 387-12 |
| John Bennett | 32 | 278-12 |
| Paul Bennett | 23 | 166-8 |
| Paul Jay | 22 | 121-8 |
Awesome weight from Mark!!! Well done mate, highest weight of the year?! Got to get there ASAP………..
Are you fishing Friday night Chris
Magnificent effort by Mark.
I think we knew a triple we coming soon.
Good luck to those fishing on Friday. Eat plenty of carrots tonight!
I hope to be back at the lake next Wednesday, 4 weeks is far too long to be away!
Fantastic weight Mark from a great peg and only one carp from 400lb but still king of the lake very well done.
That weight will take some beating game on.
Cheers chaps. My first 300lb bag! I think I would have made it to 400lb if I didn’t trash 6 paste floats….. need to get that sorted. Anyone got any decent recomendations as the KC Carpa floats are not up to the job.
I’m shattered today tho. Looking forward to friday it should be a good laugh!
Thats proper bagging mate, well done.
Get in touch with John Walker for your paste floats, there the only ones iv used at Rolf’s that last.
Third place to Paul Bennett, now that’s not short for Pauline, John’s wife by any chance………….
