ESTHWAITE WATER TROUT FISHERY REPORT – 1ST February 2013
Despite the mixed bag of weather we have experienced since
the new year, especially the heavy snowfall of last week, things are starting
to settle and anglers are back on the bankside and reporting some cracking
fish, both Trout and Pike!
Big s club member John Ashurst from Wigan lure fished the
venue from the boat and took a 14pound Pike.
Andrew Dennet also fished lures from the boats with an
Esthwaite guide and took a fine conditioned 25lb Pike.
Big s club member Chris Harris from Blackburn also fished
lures from the boats and took a jack and a 21 pounder from just outside the
ticket office.(see attached photo)
Another Big s club member Steve Hinks from Blackpool fished
static deadbait from the boats and landed 2 jacks and a 17lb 12oz fish.
Meanwhile father and son Mike and Sean Whitaker from Horsham
boat fished the venue and took an 8lb Rainbow Trout, 3 jacks, a 12 pounder and
a 22lb Pike on a combination of lures and deadbaits.
However star of the show at the moment Ryan Burrow aged 21
from Bowness on Windermere bank fished the car park and over 2 sessions has
landed a 25 pounder and an enormous Pike weighing exactly 30lb, both to static
mackerel baits. Ryan is new to Pike fishing and he seems to have all the luck.
He has now had 4 Pike in his short Pike angling career. An 18, a 22, a 25 and a
30 pounder. What a lucky fellow he is, well done! (see attached picture)
Don’t forget our coarse fishing season ends on February 28th,
so this month is the last shot at the big Roach, Rudd and Perch that reside in
the venue and don’t forget tickets for the coarse fishing are only £10.
For all you Trout anglers out there, the lake will receive
its first stocking of the year on March 1st, however who needs to wait
until then. Over wintered fish well into double figures have been caught this
winter on all methods!
Also don’t forget Hawkshead Angling Club are now recruiting
for the 2013 season. The cost is £135 for adults and £31 for juniors and there
is NO eligibility boundary. Also members benefit from a 50% discount on boat
