Elinor opens for the 2016 season on Saturday February 13th at 7am for both season and day ticket anglers.
Permits will be on sale from 6.30am.
There has been a preseason stocking of 2070 rainbows to supplement a good head of overwintered fish.
All ticket prices remain the same as 2015.
For the first couple of weeks bank fishing is usually better than from boats. Try a floater or intermediate line with a slow retrieve of white/green or black/green lures, apps worms, squirmy worms, orange or sunburst blobs.
Most successful nymphs early season are grhe, small damsel, black buzzer.
