What a week of weather: bright sun, calm days and March highs touching 19 degrees! This would spell doom for most anglers but many were keen to get out and feel the warmth of the sun on their faces. Despite the bright conditions, fish were feeding well and plenty were landed. Buzzers are hatching in … Continue reading Fishing Report 28th March 2022 »

Last week was another great one with some more spring-like weather – every week seems to be getting better and better now, as do the hatches. Once again there was lots of buzzer activity all over the lake, with plenty of rising fish to be seen, and some anglers did well on dries. Nymphs produced … Continue reading Fishing Report 14th March 2022 »

Last week was another busy one at the fishery with plenty of new faces in and around the lake which is always good to see.

Notes

Unsurprisingly, last week wasn’t what you would call a bumper week given the crazy weather we experienced. Very few anglers were willing to battle the elements, but a handful did and a special mention must be given to Peter Manley who landed a staggering 15 fish using an intermediate line and blobs – a superb … Continue reading Fishing Report 21st February 2022 »

Last week was a mix mixed one weather-wise, with some very cold nights and a touch of frost. Finally though, dare we say it, it’s starting to feel a little spring-like. Some lovely still days have seen big hatches of buzzer and plenty of fish taking advantage with lots of surface activity – great to … Continue reading Fishing Report 14th February 2022 »

Notes

It was another busy week at the fishery and there’s a sense that anglers are starting to feel that spring is in the air. Warmer temperatures have seen fish moving higher up in the water and floating lines and sink tips have been the go-to lines. On the windier days, switching to an intermediate to … Continue reading Fishing Report 7th February 2022 »

FISHING REPORT: 24/01/22 Last week was another chilly one with some really cold overnight temperatures that got as low as -5.

Notes

It certainly was a week of proper winter weather and anglers were greeted most mornings by a heavy frost and clear skies. Despite these conditions, the gentle winds and sun did have some buzzers hatching off through the day and fish did freely eat from the surface which is great to see. Most anglers took … Continue reading Fishing Report 17th January 2022 »
