Last week 52 rods caught 234 fish for an average of 4.50 fish per rod

Another good week with plenty of good sized fish coming out and most anglers catching their limits.

Messrs T Ali and Meah fished from a boat on Cocks Close and both caught 8lb fish in their five fish limits and these all fell to a Cats Whisker fished on a slow sinking line. Dean Piper of Milton Keynes fished Cocks Close and on the Park Meadow pool and caught four fish from Cocks Close and a superb brown trout estimated between 8 and 10lb from Park Meadow which was safely returned, all Dean’s fish fell to an orange and white Lure fished on a floating line. Glenn Fraser of Birmingham caught four fish from a boat on Cocks Close and his best was a 7lb 10oz rainbow which fell to a Cats Whisker. Dimitor Velkov of Sutton-in-Ashfield caught an 8lb rainbow from the bank of Cocks Close and this fell to a Cats Whisker again.

The anglers have enjoyed success from the bank and boats with both pools in good form at the moment.

Cats Whisker has been the top fly but plenty of fish are coming to various Lures such as Minkies, black Tadpole and big Gold Head Damsels. Natural patterns such as Diawl Bach, Bloodworm and black Buzzer are also accounting for a few fish.
THE TROUT FISHERY WILL BE CLOSED ON CHRISTMAS DAY, BOXING DAY AND NEW YEAR’S DAY. WE WOULD LIKE TO WISH ALL OUR CUSTOMERS A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND ‘TIGHT LINES’ FOR THE NEW YEAR.
