The brighter sunny days will delay the … Continue reading Fishing Report 15th May »

A week that once again started to feel a bit more like spring! Warmer days and relatively calm conditions at times have seen the lake bubbling. Huge hatches of buzzers and olives have had the trout feeding in overdrive and some great bags coming because of it. Keeping your flies in the top couple of … Continue reading Fishing Report 24th April »

Another mixed week of weather last week with highs well into the mid-teens, beautiful sunshine and huge buzzer hatches mixed with heavy rain, winds and frosts. However, this didn’t put many anglers off.   Naturals continued to be the best line of attack.

The weather improved dramatically through the week last week and so did the catches! Angling regular, Jay Bartlett had a terrific Friday session bagging 8 fish in quick time including 2 spartics. Using a mix of tactics including waking a daddy across the surface produced some excellent sport. Nymphs and naturals continue to come out … Continue reading Fishing Report 20th March »

With freezing temperatures and snow it was a very quiet first half of the week for the fishery. Just when we finally thought that spring was here, the winter weather was back with a bang!

What a difference a week makes! Despite some ruthlessly cold north east winds, plenty of anglers ventured out and were well rewarded. Fish all over the lake certainly switched on with the fresh delivery livening up catches for visitors. Lots of anglers landed several fish each visit with notable bags falling to Martin Thumbwood and … Continue reading Fishing Report 27th February »
