Water: The high water levels remain at the main lakes though Barrows are well down at present. Temperature at the surface has fallen to 15°C.
Barrows: Levels have fallen at all the tanks. The fishing remains quite hard but good bags of fish are still being taken. The algae in 2 has now cleared again but there is still some blanket weed which can be a nuisance. Nymphs and buzzers fished very slowly on long leaders well worth a try.
