Rolfslake Match  Fishing Carp Winner

Winner Dave Hawkins

 

Dave Hawkins (Dorchester)    Fishing standard tactics for peg 34 the Dorchester backed angler took fish to double figures for a cracking 187lb and first place. The trick in the winter is to fish back towards the summer lilly pads to the first marker buoy from the bank. This is just past the second drop off and holds a good number of fish both summer and winter. Dave took the majority of fish on sweetcorn hook baits over 4mm pellets.

Gary Thorpe (Ton up Baits) -   Drawn on the same peg as yesterday, Peg 14, and with the added bonus of the Golden Peg, you can forgive the Ton Up backed angler if he fancied his chances to go one better. But just as the match unfoulded only 24 hours previously, the smaller fish from this winter hot spot proved to be his downfall, that if you can call 149lb in November a downfall! Gary fished at 16m with sweetcorn and pellet hookbaits over potted pellets.

Elsewhere - Overall the lake fished very well, again a good hand full of ton up weights pushed the weekends tally to a round dozen. Again, too many carp about for anyone to go for the Silver fish but I expect the silver fish matches to hot up as the weather cools.

 

As of now Silver Fish and Carp will be allowed, Silver fish must be in a third net with no carp. £20 All-In (Golden Peg/Silver Fish & Carp/ & Pegging Fee).
