Winter fishing at its best

Saturday 17-12-11

Weather = Cold, snowy spells and slight wind.
Killing pattern = black and pink goldhead // black tadpole

Cold and plenty of snow throughout the day, the fishing is still excellent! Ted Brown arrived at Curleys at roughly 9am and within an hour he had five fish to a black and pink lure. Five "perfectly conditioned" trout. Those that fished today did very well with a high rod average. All fishable pegs were cleared of snow making it easily accessible even in these conditions.

Black and green/pink lures doing the business.
A floating line can still be used very effectively at Curleys even at this time of year, but i do recommend sticking to a intermediate line to give yourself the option of fishing shallow or mid depth. Always at this time of year keep a sinking line to hand, as the fish can sit deeper.

Tightlines,
Nathan Jones
