The winter season at Blackdyke seemed to take a while to take off this year but last week, even before the restock on Friday, fishing improved immensely. The fish were mostly close in, mostly not too far down and could be caught in nearly all areas. There was no need for a boat again last week as they were easily out fished by the banks. Bloodworm did very well last week as did a blue flash damsel or a cats whisker. The fish were very much up for it though so many patterns were working such as blobs, fabs, nymphs, buzzers and a variety of lures. We had plenty of new faces at the lake in the last seven days which is always great to see. Picture of Bob Adare.
Other notables were Vaidas Juska who had (20) and John Blake who had (19) nearly all of which were caught when he ditched the boat and fished from the bank.
