Although the numbers of fish caught were not massive last week, fishing was very consistent and hardly anybody blanked. A few proved it was possible to reach double figures mostly with some form of lure such as a damsels, dancers, cats whiskers or snakes. Mostly the fish were close in and all banks fished well at times apart from the south bank which was slow especially by the car park. Some other flies that worked last week were the humongous, zonker, black Fritz, black spider and blob. One pattern that took plenty of fish, especially towards the end of the week was the red apps bloodworm. There will be a restock next week and the weather looks to be dry and quite pleasant so we are looking forward to more of the same.
