Better weather last week and plenty of anglers.
A fantastic list of big fish were caught with numerous 5lb+ fish not getting a mention.
Boat and bank anglers enjoying excellent sport although most of the bigger fish are coming from the bank.
On the calmer days there are huge numbers of fish rising to small black emerging buzzers.
Washing line on a floater has been the best method closely followed by dries in the right conditions.
