Feedback & Reports

One small brown trout caught and returned. Six perch caught - these fish are a nuisance and seem to be taking over the reservoir. Where are the rainbow trout? Is the lake still being stocked?
Lots of walkers with dogs playing in the water, with no regards for fishermen. Also saw wild swimmers using the lake for the first time.

A hot & sunny day with the river very low - so not surprising that there wasn't much happening beyond the odd tremble. I was fishing a halibut pelt with a feeder, looking for the barbel. If the river was more accessible, I would have roamed around a bit, but the spots you can get down to and fish are few in the summer at this place. Lovely place to be in though. The drive down and back up would probably be a bit hairy without a 4-wheel-drive outside of dry summer days :-}

First time fishing the beat,no fish,2 or 3 bites,still a gorgeous venue

Another good day on a rising river with a lot of flow.

The river was low and the weather hot. Just like the fishing! This was an evening session on the deeper waters downstream of the church, beyond the island. The light open feeder barely had time to settle before the accompanying luncheon meat was consumed. River fishing at its finest!
