WEST HOUSE FISHING REPORT 04/05/15
Some mixed weather this last week has certainly made for changing fishing conditions. During the warm spell we had some excellent fly hatches and there was some terrific sport with dry flies, but the colder weather and the winds move the fish down so the lures started to take over. The lakes are now open until 8pm every evening
Free tea and coffee is now available from the lodge at West house for anglers
Local anglers Ernie Craster, peter Crowe and Chris Micallef had an excellent afternoon session landing 47 fish between them up to 7lb, caught on a variety of methods from Dries to Lures. Emilie Wright aged 10 caught 8 fish up to 6lb fishing a Squirmy worm under an indicator. Simon Jackson from Thirsk caught a lovely Brown trout estimated at 8lb. the fish falling to a cormorant fished in the margins. Alastair Jones of Sunderland caught 18 fish in a hectic session using a selection of buzzers, the best fish a nice rainbow of 6lb. Nigel Howes of Hull a visitor to the region landed a stunning rainbow of 14lb caught using a red bloodworm
The lakes are now open from 8am until 8pm every day
Best Flies :- Anglers have been using a wide variety of flies, amongst the best of them were f-flies, shuttlecocks, black pennel, , damsel, black gnat, blobs and bloodworms.
