Some big fish have been caught this week with at two Carp both over 19lb being landed by surprised anglers expecting a Rainbow.
It’s a real shame about these Cold Blustery winds. When the winds drop we have had some excellent hatches of flies and the sport on the surface has been excellent. Although still fishing well the winds have moved the fish down and made the fishing more difficult in terms of comfort presentation
Plenty of fish are still being caught at West House. Once again most of the activity has beed high in the water with Buzzers abd dries accounting for most of the fish caught. The lakes are now open until 8.30pm for those anglers wishing to fish the evening rise. Only £8 for an evening ticket 4pm onwards.
Settled conditions are producing some fantasic fishing at West House. Plenty of fish are rising with some good hatches of flies.
