ESTHWAITE WATER
TROUT FISHERY REPORT 21/7/15
The trout
fishing has been tough during the heatwave. Fish did their usual migration to
the deep water and were feeding almost exclusively on Daphnia and as a result
were very tricky to catch. The weather is cooling now and its an improving
picture with fish venturing to the surface in the mornings and evenings again
feeding on buzzer , sedge and damsels!
Due to the
depth the fish were residing (10-25 feet down), worm predictably out fished any
other method . Indeed 9 year old Joe Buxton from South Wales fished worm deep
around the weather buoys and landed 5 nice brownies to 2lb+. Peter Jenkins from
Nottingham also landed 5 brownies on similar tactics from the North basin too.
Spinning
tactics have also been producing the goods of late, as Darren Golden from Rochdale found out. He fished from the
boats and landed 7 trout to 2lb+ on a 3cm Rapala in the South basin!
Meanwhile
Ross Anderson from Arbroth fished fly and spinner and landed 4 browns to 1lb
8oz. John Jones from North Wales also landed 5 browns to cats whisker fished on
a Di-7 sinking line!
Providing
the weather continues to cool expect sport to improve no end. Another 500 top
quality triploid Brown Trout were stocked again last Friday!
