NOTABLE CATCH: Colin Linsell 11 fish, Nigel Percival 10 fish
NOTABLE BAG Nigel Percival 5 fish for 13lb 4oz
BEST RAINBOW: 4lb Colin Linsell
BANK ROD AV: 4 fish per angler.
SPORT: A very windy day again here at Stocks with bright conditions to boot.
It seems that if you got it right today the sport was exceptional. Regular Nigel Percival had a great day with 10 fish to the net. Nigel found a white fritz gold head the top pattern and Bell point was the spot to be. Also on Bell point was Colin Linsell who just piped Nigel with 11 fish. Collin fished cat’s whiskers and Cormorants on a slow sinking line to tempt the fish.
Often these windy days can feel daunting and not fill you with much confidence, but if you use the wind to your advantage you can find the fish. Let the wind do the work bringing the flies round and you will be surprised just how close in the fish will be.
Windy for tomorrow then settling off for the rest of the week.
