Rolfs' Diary 2007

Saturday - Maggot Drowner's
.
12 May 2007
Fishing 1pm til 6pm

The Maggot Drowner's had to put up with some poor weather conditions for a Rolfslake invitation match. Sold out in a matter of hours after the invite was posted www.maggotdrowning.com, the forum based matches are always well attended and fished in good spirit.

Matt Nutt drew Peg 9, and didn't initial fancy his chance of the match win, however fishing at 13m on the deck and feeding Hemp and Caster whilst fishing GOT Baits Cat meat favoured soft hooker pellet (11m) over the top, kept the fish coming for Matt.

Match Winner

Gemma Doyle - A new PB Carp.

Gemma Doyle (Maggot Drowner's) gave Paul Roberts a good pasting of the next peg from Pegs 28 and 27 respectively. Young Gem' was heard to reply to Paul's comments of Gem' taking time to land fish slower than himself as:

"Paul, yeah, but your catching much smaller fish than I am!"

.... and she was right, she took both bigger fish and a greater number of fish in the long run. Gemma took 70lb+ to Paul's 20lb+ from the next peg, ouch. It just goes to show - sometimes it's just better to keep your mouth shut from the next peg, especially if the pegs next door is occupied buy the organiser's daughter! Well done Gemma.
