Foremark Trout Fishery Report week ending 05/04/09
We have enjoyed an excellent start to the season at Foremark with 174 rods catching 2130 trout returning 1585 for a rod average of 12.2
Our initial stocking of just under 5000 trout ranging in size from 1lb4oz - 10lb will increased by a further 1500 trout this week to ensure our good sport continues over Easter.
The anglers fishing the bank have caught well from the boat pontoon, flamingo bay & hut point with boats finding trout in front of the lodge, sun blest & bramble bay.
On the cooler mornings an intermediate or DI5 has worked best especially for the boat anglers however once the air temperature increased a floating line was the order of the day. A large number of fly patterns have worked from blobs, tadpoles, cats whiskers, damsel diawl bach & buzzers.
A number of large stocked & overwintered trout have been caught Keith Coley 10lb1oz, I. Hartland 10lb, L. Wheeler 9lb8oz, S. Pym 7lb12oz & Ian Hall 5lb8oz.
