England Troutmasters Reports for Week-ending Ⅰ

Bewl Water, Kent
After a weekend of very good fishing with some catch and release anglers catching up to 14 trout, the last two or three days have been more challenging as the water has colored with brown algae and it is difficult to judge the depth of the fish. Rod average for the week was 2.56 - good for mid August. Best areas for boats are the main bowl and Hook Straight. Best areas for bank fishing are the dam wall and Chingley. Successful flies are Boobies, Blobs, Cormorants, Minkies and Tadpoles. Due to low oxygen levels in the water, catch and release has been temporarily suspended.

Blackdyke Trout Fishery, Norfolk
The smaller the better this week as far as patterns are concerned. Jeff Wilkinson had a great day here on Saturday, fishing size 14-16 olive nymphs sparsely dressed under an indicator three foot down on a floating line. He managed to catch and release 12 with several browns. A Lot of fishes still around the margins with the aerators be the hotspots on the lake.

Chatton Trout Fishery, Northumberland
All three lakes are fishing well with various dries, Buzzers, Diawl Bachs and small lures taking fish. Jim Tuck, from Ashington, caught 18 fish on a Chatton Chaser. Peter Davison, from New Hartley, caught 15 fish on Blobs and dries. Matty Divine, from Hadston, caught 18 fish, best at 12lb 12oz, on Diawl Bachs and Damsels. Keith Laidler, from Chester le Street, enjoyed his free day’s fishing on a full loyalty card landing 10 fish, best at 7lb 8oz and 7lb. All were caught on a Shipman’s. Trevor Wadds, from Craster, caught nine fish on Zonkers and Buzzers. John Maguire, from Houghton le Spring, caught 10 fish on olives, Spiders and Bloodworms. Lee Cartmail, from Middlesbrough, caught 18 fish on Zonkers. Colin Harris, from Whickham, caught 18 on various dries. Other good catches went to David Brown, from Bedlington, with a 6lb 8oz rainbow caught from Ross Lake on a Sedge. Fishery regular Alec Fish caught a 4lb 10oz rainbow on a Diawl Bach from Chatton Lake. Ten-year-old Rinn Reekie, from Fife, on his first visit to Chatton landed a 3lb 10oz rainbow from Ross Lake. Mark Straughen from the Norham and Ladykirk Angling Association included rainbows of 6lb 8oz and 5lb in a total bag weight 16lb.

Derwent Reservoir, Northumberland
Sport continued to be good this week, especially earlier in the week when cloudy, cool conditions brought fish close to the margins. Tuesday saw athletics legends Steve Cram and Daley Thompson take 12 fish between them on Power Bait and spinners. We had 24 catch limits in the first three days of the week with Mr. K. Maxwell and Mr. M. Osbourne taking eight fish limits well over 16lb. The catch of the week went to Mr. Fenny who had over 20lb on Wednesday including some nice three-pounds The weekend was slightly less productive as the bright sunshine and rise in temperatures pushed fish out into the depths. However, some good catches were still recorded early and late in the day as fish moved back into the margins during these periods. Fly anglers using dries and wets just under the surface recorded the best catches with some outstanding rises on many evenings.

Fontburn Reservoir, Northumberland
A week of settled weather resulted in some good sport on favour, cooler days. Minnows shoaling on all banks resulted in feeding trout showing in all areas as they gorge on the abundance of fry. Anglers using a spinner/float or a levered bait did not have to cast very far as the feeding trout were extremely close to the margins. There were some excellent catches recorded throughout and Mr. A. Olsen netted eight pristine rainbows for 23lb. He was closely followed by Mr. J.B. Wilson who caught eight superb rainbows for 20lb 8oz including the biggest fish of the week at 3lb 8oz. Mr. R. Marshall was delighted with his eight fish catch limit total 20lb 6oz and this was just a few of the recorded eight fish catch limits. Fly anglers continued to reap the rewards of traveling light and covering a lot more bank, especially on an evening when there are frequent hatches. Best flies are Hawthorn, Dawson’s Olive, Black Gnat, Bibio and Cat’s Whisker. Top tip for anglers wanting to spin for trout is to find a quiet piece of bank and cast your spinner adjacent to the bank about 10 to 15 feet from the margins. Best areas are north shore middle section and dam wall on an evening with all areas fishing well.

Tungsten is the most popular of all the substitutes to make fishing sinker, tungsten fishing sinker is heavier, denser, and smaller than traditional lead sinkers in the same weight class. So tungsten fishing sinker is suited for Troutmasters.
