Manor Farm Leisure - Island and Windmill Pools

Peg 19 Windmill Pool

53lb 6oz

Second on lake.

5th overall. 23 anglers fished

Unfortunately I couldn't locate the "units" in the lake. However, fortunately I caught some beautiful F1's and just picked up an envelope by 5oz.

Only caught one carp, which was the last fish of the day.

Rolfs Lake two dayer silver festival.

Rolfs Lake is a famous lake for it's huge head of big carp, average stamp is going to be 10lb and 8lber is a small one!! I have spent countless hours fishing at John Bennett's fishery in the past and was always a regular at Easter Festival, but never managed to get into the top three, "always there or there abouts".

This two dayer Silver Fish Festival is a one off, normally its a three day Easter festival, so I was lucky to get onto it, saw it advertised and booked myself in.

This is a random draw each day, so hoped the draw gods were going to be kind, which they were. My results were;

Day One

Peg 40

19lb mainly roach (10 skimmers)

Won match

Day Two

Peg 17

11lb 14oz mainly roach (4 skimmers)

Won section, third overall

Overall

1. Myself 2pts 30lb 14oz

2. Jason Crump 2pts 21lb 11oz
