Sport: Bank House is finally back up and running. We have made one or two changes; a couple of the pools are a lot larger now as we have removed parts of the islands. All of the shallow areas have been made deeper and silt has been removed from all over. The lake is currently fishing really well, so far it has mainly been lures that are doing the trick Phil Bisgrove took 15 trout most of which fell to an orange fritz fished on a floating line. He was only topped by Mr Kenway who netted another two to give him a tally of 17. He too was using an orange lure. An orange dog nobbler caught Mark Abram the bag of life time; he had two rainbows of just over 10lbs and two blue trout that lifted his bag of four to 25lbs 12oz! (pictured below) He caught 3 more cracking blues that were safely returned, lost another specimen and got smashed up by something really big! Other good catches came to cat’s whiskers and blobs. We will continue to stock daily to keep up the good sport. Tight Lines Ben
