Draycote Water Weekly Fishing Report w/e Sunday 7th June 2015.
Despite the changing conditions, Draycote is offering some excellent fishing for all anglers. There seems to be plenty of fish holding in the margins, and large shoals of grown on fish coming to the boats in open water.
The weather has once again put us through our paces here, with the wind swinging around from all angles and blowing a lot harder than was forecast at times, and although no damage was done, on Tuesday we witnessed some of the largest waves we’ve seen crashing into the pontoon.
Tosh Storer’s Party, visiting from Scotland, had their fishing disrupted by the weather on Tuesday, but still managed to wiggle a few out from the bank in Rainbow corner. Continuing with their boat fishing on Thursday and judging by their comments, I think they had a good trip.
We’ve also had visiting parties from both Northern and Southern Ireland this week. All of whom left very positive comments on the catch return.
It was good to see the Civil Service Match back out on the water on Thursday, organised by Frazer McConnell. The match winners were Geoff Taylor and Steven Frakes with 16 fish for 45lb 6oz.
Rather than listing the best areas this week, I can confidently say that the only spot where not many fish have been caught is the Draycote Dam, all other areas are producing good sport, with the best of them being the Cornfield and Toft Shallows.
Best Flies; Black Buzzers, Red Holographic Dawl Bach’s, Nemo Crunchers, Black and Green Lures, Damsels and Orange Blobs. Best lines; Floaters, midge tips, intermediates, DI5’s and DI7’s.
