Hi again   May and June used to be the best trout fishing months with plenty of fly life and moving fish at all the lakes. For the last few years these months have been cold, wet and blowy. But this year things have been back to the 'Good Old Days' with fish feeding at the surface much of the time, even during the day. Boat and bank anglers have been able to fish dries and emergers to good effect and the fish have been very accommodating. Surely there's nothing better than spotting a fish feeding, judging its direction and speed and casting where you expect him to be. A few seconds of anticipation and with luck the fish rolls over the offering and you're in! Well, if that's what you like then come down to Chew now for some great sport.

Blagdon:         This weeks stocking ahs helped the fishing at Blagdon but it is still a little harder than a few weeks ago. Areas to try for boat and bank are Top End, Butcombe, Cheddar Water and Pipe Bay.
