Weed cutting was disrupting fishing last week making fishing more challenging. However Trout rose steadily to Green Buzzers. However most bays are now clear of weed.
However weed Oxygenates the lakes keeping fish healthy and encourage fly life in warm weather , anglers have to use top of the water action for best results.
Plenty of large bags were netted with Peter Andrew from Tyne and Wear catching 28 and Andy Birch from Shiney Row with 23 Trout. James Stephenson from Gateshead returned 13.
Given cloud ( and we were last week ) trout rose steadily to green buzzers and were tempted with shipmans when the wind dropped and shuttlecocks in a breeze.
When fishing the latter, a CDC pattern twitched in the same direction as the wind was easily the most effective,and particularly so in the lee of the island on the Doxford lake.
In a decent wave a large sedge is still deadly at times-indeed static close-copy adult sedges presented on flat water did the trick too.
Daddies and damsels shouldn't be ignored either
