Rolfs Lake - Festival 2013


Rolfs Easter Festival 2013

 
Day 1's catch 13 bream and 1 carp....... then it went all down hill!
 
 
Day Three
 
April Fools .......

With Andy with 2 points and almost 300lb in total weight, things looked very rosey for him. Also John on 3 points, and in the C section today where most carp will be caught, again things looked very good for him also!
So i'm fishing for 3rd place overall, which i would be very pleased with!
The little lake is where the lake has been fishing the hardest, however 2 pegs are full of tiny fish, pegs 40 and 38 would guarantee plenty of bites. I need to finish in the top 2 to hopefully put me in a frame place. If i won the section, then i would finish in the top 5. Pressure on the draw bag!

I drew peg 4, which had flat water and therefore fancied it for a few late carp......

My fishing match didn't go well at all. Hooked and lost one carp on the roach gear. And that summed up my match up really. Thought I would catch a couple of late carp, but all I done was watch Andy bag up, fair play. I couldn't for my life catch down there, i had a perch and gudgeon on my 0.165 hooklength and 3 maggots! Bumped a 1lb perch, which would of made no difference.
Not a good start to my "to do list". Oh well, our Spring League starts next week on the kennet and avon canal, I feel that could be another tough match.

Day Two
  • Peg 24
  • 55lb (2 x 7lbers and 3 big dogs)
  • 3rd section
  • Drifting ice was a killer!!
After a very cold night, the lake was froze solid! And i thought it was spring time? Fair play to John Bennett and Paul Jaz who went out in the boat to break the ice.

Drew peg 24, which won yesterday, however, with the whole lakes ice drifting into our corner, we (Phil, Dave and myself) were going to take the whole lakes ice! Not good, as this made it almost impossible to fish for at least 3 hours of the match. I had to smash the ice with top 4 while playing an angrey 18lb carp!!  Which some how, I got it out....... I give full credit to my Airon F55 pole is a strong tool, despite breaking the number 1 in the end, with ice and double figure fish, which again, some how got it out!  I think most poles would of been in 7 bits, maybe more out of frustration especially after loosing an 18lb carp in ice, topped off one of the most difficult days fishing i've ever had!!!!

 
Oliver (the dog) weighs around 18lb.....




Oh and the guys putting my fish back without a photo!! Even though I took photos of most people..... never mind.

Rolf's lake was frozen solid, about 2cm in places........ not good.





Andy with an amazing weight considering it was froze solid...... over 200lb!!
