May update

Well the weather has been up and down more than a yoyo but this has resulted in the lakes remaining full and the water temperatures far lower than normal for this time of year.

As you may have guessed, the fishing has been pretty much all over the place with the weather changes. I think, as a general rule, the fish have been high in the water and in some cases, very high. It seems to be more a case of finding the fish rather than specific fly choice. Just a few days ago the fish were in the top 6-12 inches and if you were any deeper you would not even get a sniff from the fish! Definitely a time to bring out the suspender buzzers or washing line methods.

We are still getting alot of anglers bagging up and having a fantastic day. Both myself and Caroline have taught lessons recently with the novice anglers catching multiple fish.

We have just had a lovely stocking with an average stock size of 3lb! There will certainly be some very happy anglers over the coming days.
