Great days fishing best 4 fish 8lb 14oz, 9lb, 9lb 7oz, 10lb 3oz plus 4 fish lost to hook pulls

8 Barbel

Fished for about an hr so much weed coming down decided to call it a day it’s a lovely venue though had lots of good sessions on this beat.

My son Fish there didn’t catch anything lot of cray fish dead and alive .Lake has beautiful surroundings but What is wrong with people.Lot of rubbish on bank bottles cigarette buds ,vapes left purposely under rocks.Fishing lines left just like that .We picked few things as we were leaving but.How can you expect people to pay for this definitely not coming back.

Tried everything I know ( however only been fly fishing for a couple of years so not a lot).
Fish jumping around just not taking anything wet, dry tried drop lines .

A tricky tricky tricky few hours onnz local favourite stretch !!! The Hundred House beat is mega low ..Stealth is absolutely key to success here, and all the streams in fairness .....
Fished from half eleven, till half two, seriously tough today. I dipped with the thermometer, just fof interest reading 12 degrees !!! Very cool in fact ....
Dry fly sport at thf heads of the tiny pools i could manage not to spook the fush lol !!!
Great fun as always, four small chaps to the net, and a futher two thst kindly released themselves!!! So gracious!!!!! Six of sevennjnch fish, good aggressive takes to thr dry though ....lovely stuff !!
I'd highly recommend a stream carrying a good bit of water, like the Hindwell @Knill or Coombe at the moment....That's a fun stream, but get the right time of day to fish it though for success!!!
Right, onwards and upwards .... ohhhh did see another mink ...he needs thinning out, I'll get on the case ....Another great little sortie on an.old favourite ..... lovely job!!!!
