Easter Festival Day 2. Draw and Hourly Updates. 8th April 2012

The rain fell overnight at the lake but this meant that again the frost was kept at bay. There was some drizzle at the draw but it's brightening up ready for the anglers today.
Someone (no names) went out on the pop last night and has a very bad head today and turned the carpark at Rolfslake into a disco when he came back early in the morning, local bouncer Dai Thomas had a job waking him up from his drunken slumber despite knocking the window. It's going to be a very long match for ****** hehe.

Jeff Edwards, current Leader has had a good draw today on peg 13. Second place Chris Telling was not so lucky pulling out peg 35 which is not a favoured peg but can throw up good weights from time to time, if anyone can get a good weight from it Chris can. Third place Mick Lane has drawn ok too with peg 15.

Right on to the draw for today....

First update will be 12.40pm (ish) Check back later thank you

Update1. 12.40pm
Its flat calm down the lake and cloudy. The little lake seems to have had a good start again like yesterday but slowed down already.
Phil Powell on 6 and Chris Telling on 35 were having a sword fight both fishing 16 meters and fishing the same swim virtually. Festival Leader Jeff Edwards on peg 13 had a brilliant start but they were all foul hookers and he lost a lot of fish but despite this he has managed to catch 5 carp.
The lads on the car park bank are fishing too far out and struggling it seems, Michael Corsini on peg 26 has just moved onto an 8 meter line and started catching, the others may follow suit if he keeps on catching. Phil on 6 has switched from his girly elastic after being led on a merry dance round the small lake and under his platform by a resident carp lol.
Andy Johnstone on peg 4 is hooking plenty of fish but loosing them which has give him some hope as peg 4 yesterday was pretty poor.

Scores on the board so far....
Section 1..
Matt Smith, Peg 34 - 6 carp
Mick Lane, Peg 15 - 4 carp
Mick Hughes and Steve Waters, Peg 23 and 17 - 1 carp

Section 2..

Curtis Tranter and Mark Malin, peg 7 and 9 - 3 carp

Section 3..
Phil Powell, Peg 6 - 3 carp
Chris Telling, Peg 35 - 2 carp
Wez Hillier and John Draper, Peg 38 and 40 - 1 carp

A good start again, will it slow down again like yesterday, check back in an hour. Thanks.

Update 2.. 1.44pm
The sun is shining and its flat calm. Fish have started popping all over the lake and there are a lot of fish on the surface. Much the same as yesterday the fishing has slowed down again. Clive on form peg 8 is really struggling and Curtis on peg 7 is fishing long and and catching and losing a lot of fish. Dai on Section winning peg 21 is also struggling today loosing fish.
Dave Wightman again is a late starter being the only person not to have caught a carp yet. He was much the same yesterday and then stormed ahead in the last hour.

Section 1..
Matt on Peg 34 has 9 carp.
Mick on Peg 15 has 5 carp and is playing another
Michael and Steve on Peg 26 and 17 both have 2 carp

Section 2..
Jeff on Peg 13 now has 7 carp and loosing loads.
Joff and Mark Pegs 2 and 9 both have 6 carp.
Andy on Peg 14 has 5 carp.

Section 3..
Phil Peg 6 has 4 carp
Chris on Peg 35 has 3 carp
The rest of the little lake all have 1 carp too.

Update 3. 2.40pm.
The little lake has died and everything stays the same in there except while talking to John Matt and Chris telling land another fish. It has now clouded over and a little bit of rain has fallen on the lake. As I was speaking to John the wind has picked up and literally people started to catch whilst on the phone. Mick Lane landed one and hooked another, Dai on 21 was playing a fish and so was Ernie, Andy Q and Jon Walker. Clive on peg 8 is having a nightmare day by the looks of things.
Having seen Michael catching on the 8 meter line the rest of the car park bank did the same and managed a few fish.. Hopefully the way people were starting to catch we should have a better update next time.

Section 1..
peg 34 has 11 carp
peg 15 has 6 carp
peg 17 has 4 carp

Section 2..
peg 13 has 8 carp
peg 14 had 7 carp
peg 9 has 6 carp and was playing another

Section 3..
peg 6 still has 4 carp
peg 35 just caught another and now also has 4 cap
rest of the little lake still have 1 carp.

Last update before the results in an hour. Thanks.

Last update before the results. 3.35pm
Overcast and windy now which seems to have spurred the fish to go back down and have a munch. Andy Q on 14 has been potting big pots of bait out and fish straight over it to get a good reaction from the carp. Dai on 21 is getting plenty of action now but also loosing a lot of fish. Lurker Lane on 15 is catching Matt on 34 up quickly now getting plenty of bites. It seems a lot of fish have been lost today and that will be the story as the scales go round the lake I'm sure.

Section 1..
Matt on 34 has 15 carp.
Lurker Lane on 15 has 12 carp
Mick Hughes on 23 has 6 carp

Section 2..
Jeff and Mark Malin on 13 and 9 have 8 carp each.
Andy and Joff on 14 and 2 have 7 carp each.
Curtis on peg 7 has 7 carp.

Section 3..
Chris on 35 is doing the biz and has 7 carp
Phil on 6 still has 4 carp
Michael C on 29 has 4 carp also.

Clive must be getting peed off with sitting and watching the next peg get a ton or so, while he struggles.

#324

I know, Bet he ran round to the peg when he drew it too. Thats just Rolfs though isn't it Dave....Cruel place

Drynet · #325

Thought peg 8 was the dogs

#326

As I said on FB, poor old Clive, won't be a very happy easter bunny. Should have let the pike bite his drawing hand off yesterday.

Good to see Dai hanging in there.

Thought peg 8 was the dogs

It is Dave, but in Clives case it's dogs sh!t as opposed to the dogs man balls.

#327

Just one question Si. How the hell do they work out those sections.

Pegs 7 and 9 in section 2 with peg 2 and peg 8 in section 1 with pegs 4 and 6 in section 3.

#328

Phil Powell did them. Normally peg 40 would be in the same section as 34, 6, 7 and 8. Now look at the weights from peg 40. It simply would not compete.

Phil tried to match the top pegs, middle pegs and crap pegs in to 3 section and I think he has done a great job.

Its like Marmite some will love it and some will hate it.

#329

OMG, you had to tell him didn't you Simps.

That's all the excuse he'll need to fiddle fix alter the sections on our club matches now.

Easter Festival Final Day. Draw, updates and Results. 9th April 2012

The weather down the lake today is very wet with rain falling. It also rained throughout the night with some heavy downpours. There is a brisk south westerly wind hitting the lake. There are hundreds of fish on the top by pegs 9 and 10 following the wind. John thinks the weather today will improve the fishing. We shall see.

BREAKING NEWS...... Mick Lane has draw a crapper. Peg 19 stuck to his hand and he was not too chuffed. He was shocked when he opened his hand to see peg 19 rather than peg 13.
No overnight drama's last night down the lake.

On to the draw today.

Looking good for Chris Telling with Mick on 19 and Mark Malin on peg 4. Anything can happen though as you know if you have ever fished Rolfslake....
First update will be 12.30pm (ish)

Update1. 12.40pm..
Horrible conditions down the lake at the minute. Wind is picking up and there is a constant drizzle.
John Draper on peg 8 is having a nightmare much the same as Clive yesterday, He is out fishing long but his sections are sticking together with the rain and he is loosing fish whilst trying to unship. Steve Waters even stopped fishing to get of his box and try and help him out, what a gent.

The fishing is quite slow to start off with and the little lake is very quiet with only Mark on peg 4 into fish. Current Favourite Chris Telling has hooked and lost 1 and got one in his net, whilst Mick lane flew off and bagged 2 carp pretty much right away but its gone quiet for him now. So out of the 3 festival leaders Mark is off to the best start.

Here's how it stands at the moment...

Section1..
Ernie on 17 had 3 carp.
John Draper on 8 has 2 carp but has lost a few too.
Phil Powell on 23 has 2 carp and is playing another.

Section 2..
Dave Wightman on 14 has 3 carp.
Mick Lane on 19, Matt Smith on 31 and Steve Waters on 7 have 2 carp.

Section 3..
Curtis Tranter on 10 has 4 carp.
Andy Quarmby on 29 has 3 carp.
Mick Chappell on 21, Jeff Edwards on 6 and Mark Malin on 4 have 2 carp and Mark is playing another.

Next Update in and Hour, Cheers.

Update 2..1.44pm
The wind has calmed down a bit not and the rain has stopped. The little lake is still very quiet.
Chris Telling is still on 1 carp on peg 16 but has just landed a big pike. Phil Powell was just playing a carp and has broke his topkit, he currently playing a carp on half a topkit.

Dave on peg 14 and Marcus on 10 are both fishing long and having a few fish, Dave is also catching of the bush to his right. A lot of the others are hooking and loosing loads of fish which is very frustrating.

Section1..
Ernie on 17 has 4 carp, from the bush.
John and Phil on 8 and 23 still have 2 carp

Section 2..
Dave on 14 has 7 carp.
Steve on 7 has 5 carp.
Matt on 31 has 3 carp.

Section 3..
Curtis on 10 has 6 carp.
Andy on 29 has 5 carp.
pegs 21,6 and 4 still have 2 carp.

Update 3. 2.35pm

Very cold down the lake at the moment. Very little action to report really. Jon Walker on 38 has stopped fishing to gather his thoughts as its rock hard down the little lake. He reports that Mark on peg 4 has about 10 fish but Eddie has him down for 4 fish, Paul Jay is going round soon to update everyone so he will get a better answer from Mark himself hopefully.
The wind is now blowing from the big lake down to the little lake. From what can be seen the anglers are catching on banded hard pellet, expanders, corn and meat. A few are using worm too.

Section 1..
peg 17 has 4 carp.
peg 23 has 3 carp.
peg 8 has 2 carp.

Section 2..
peg 14 has 8 carp.
peg 7 has 5 carp.
9 and 31 have 4 carp.

Section 3..
peg 29 has 9 carp and is playing another
peg 10 had 7 carp.
peg 4 has 4 carp (maybe more, not confirmed yet as he is out of sight of the spotters)

Last update before results. 3.41pm
Bit of drama down the lake in the last hour. When your staying over for the festival and have pitched a tent please make sure you use the provided tent pegs properly....Unlike Jonny Broadbent. He was sat on peg 40 and watched in amazement as a strong gust of wind lifted his tent off the ground and dropped it behind the roped area on peg 34 where it turned upside down and started to sink with all his clothes and food still inside.

Back to the fishing and its still fairly slow, big black clouds are looming over the lake ready to pee down for the weigh in do doubt. People are still catching all round the lake in dribs and drabs.
Big news is that Mark on peg 4 has confirmed he has 12 carp and was playing another, he could win the section but Andy on peg 29 now has 14 carp and was into another with regular bites which could knock Mark down 1 point in the section.

Section 1..
Ernie on 17 has 6 carp.
Phil on 23 has 3 carp.
John on 8 and Andy on 24 have 2 carp.

Section 2..
Dave on 14 has 9 carp.
Steve on 7 has 6 carp.
Matt on 31 has 5 carp.

Section 3..
Andy on 29 has 14 carp.
Mark on 4 has 12 carp.
Curtis on 10 has 8 carp.
Joff on 35 has 5 carp.

Thanks for reading, Simon, Eddie and John.

Good draw for Dai peg 34. Wonder how it will fish today last in section Saturday but won the match yesterday.

Clives going to love drawing peg 13. His draw hand is in for some very serious punishment again.
