Today started off a nice overcast morning with intermittent sunshine creeping in and becoming more prominent as the day has gone on. Here is the verdict for the fishing..
BANK
Mark Mayers fished from the dam wall today on a half day ticket and had 4 fish in total. He caught using daddies, a pennel and a suspender buzzer all on floating lines. Well done Mark.
Andrew Wilson also had 4 fish today from the dam wall. He caught his on daddies and a bloodworm. Andrews best fish was a 2lb 8oz blue. Good angling Andrew.
BOAT
Alan Collier had 2 fish to his boat today in the northern shallows, his best being a 2lb rainbow.
Scotsmen Ronald Lesseus and William Harley had 4 fish to their boat. They caught on floating lines using black spiders. Safe journey fellas.
John Sykes was out today and was by far the top rod from anywhere on the reservoir. He caught 11 fish using cormorants on a slow intermediate line and said the best drift was from newclose bay out towards willow island with fish holding up in that area. John had various fish today, a 3lb 8oz brown, a few 3lb rainbows and a 4lb + blue. Great angling John, you’ve shown us exactly what to be doing out there today.
Tight Lines…
