| Another outstanding week has seen dozens of catch limits and some large sized and great quality fish |
| brought to the net. during the week we had 18 fish landed over the 5lb mark, the biggest a fine 10lb |
| rainbow taken by Mr M Watson who caught this on a Kate McLaren at Millshield. The fly anglers are |
| finding most of the reservoir fishing well with particular hot spots at Millshield, above the Sailing Club |
| and The Meadow. Bait Anglers have also seen a great week with endless catch limits, especially |
| anywhere east of Pow Hill. 15 year old Andrew Donkin got a fine 7lb 12oz rainbow next to the Oak Tree. |
| using Powerbait. Other good fish fell to C Timlin with a 7lb 6oz beauty and P Lynn with a fish weighing |
| in at 7lb. |
