The reservoir is thawing! Tomorrow sees the temperatures rising so I am quietly confident that we should be fully clear by Friday. I can’t be 100% sure but I’m pretty confident.
Boats can now leave the jetty safely without crossing any ice, and the whole of the east bank is totally clear. Ben’s beach, Bell Point and Barnes Quarry are all ice free for the roving bank angler.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me at the lodge for an up to date review of the situation.
One thing is for sure with the temperatures on the rise the fishing should switch on real soon and when it does we are in for a real treat!
