ReplyDeletefish colwick from the bank 2day not very good i fish it like i use to fish it years ago
ReplyDeleteon the main slipway with a fast glass & a zonker back then i use to bag up but not now 1pull & a follow. if you fish the darby waters you will b seeing fish riseing all day & getting pulls i dont think there.s many fish in colwick now.

ReplyDeleteWell done Jed, keys takes some beating at Colwick
ReplyDeleteKev not Keys (typo)
ReplyDeleteAnother day they can't take away! Found an old fly box with 25+ yrs old flies in and stuck a few of them in, in case the trout were still on fry. And they did the business!! So old I had to crush barbs in order to use them. Was harder work as Kezz says but 11 to the boat in December - and the lake to ourselves. Again. Can't beat it.
ReplyDeleteA bit cold again 2day see how long i can keep it going. till end of year i hope another 5 to the boat di3 with a zonker rolly polly loads of pulls & follow........
ReplyDeleteIts the 13th of december & ive caught 10 fish down colwick today what a day the trout was feeding on the fry a silver head zonker on a di4 did the trick,I would like to thank rich for getting me that icey boat in this morning CHEERS MATE.........WHERE IS EVERY BODY AGAIN.................
ReplyDeleteIt's the 15th December & I've caught 9 today! Fishing from the bank, mostly Marina Bank using a mini midge tip with a gold head Hares-ear on point and black Hopper on dropper, had 2 on at one point! Most came to the Cut-throat Cat which I put on later. Suppose Monday not a popular day, I had the lake to myself.
ReplyDeleteits the 20th of december & im still catching loads of fish 11 to the boat 2day same flies as last week silver bead zonker but with a di3. i was the only one fishing 2day its weird with it fishing so well,with 2 weeks to go of the season it realy as fished well........
ReplyDeleteAs you say Kezz - it's weird! Boats still on and fishing well from bank too.........
ReplyDeleteWhat can i say.I was shakeing my head 2day when i caught my 17th fish from the bank on my own again floating line g/r hare's ear on point red dawl bach on the dropper i will keep catching them if no one eles will ,,,,,,,,,
ReplyDeleteGo Kezz. May see you tomorrow as I think Joe & I are going on West Lake lure fishing for the pike! As he says if I'm going we won't get a touch!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think this is going to be my last report on here.I like to give flyfishers a idea what im catching on at colwick & where.but it dont seem to be happening when im fishing there with the lake to myself.where are the people who say we want a season extension & we want the boats to stay on & the pike men are crying to get on that lake again....Any way the fish seem to be holding in the shollow water from the boat slip way down wards fry bashing the best way ive found to catch them was a gold rib hare.s ear ( leaded) on the point & a red holo rib dawl bach (floating line) 23 fish get down there............
ReplyDeleteGood points Kezz. Would the place make more by letting the pike guys have more time? There seems to be plenty of boats available anyways. Cracking fishing mate, looking forward to them all getting through the next 10 weeks to March!
ReplyDeletefishing as slow down this week 1s & 2s but i caught 4 today & lost 3 around the slip way with a slow glass with small minkys short leader ..7 anglers fishing today hope thay are reading these reports..last day of season 2morro & i think im in a boat fingers crossed my last report 2morro ...ps get well soon jed ...............
ReplyDeleteWell it had to happen how do you spell nil out in a boat today. last day of the season it blowing a cold wind it always stops colwick from fishing never mind ive had a good year .................. ps come back jed all is forgiven...get well soon mate...
ReplyDeleteNice one Kev, well done on a great year and all the best for 2015
ReplyDelete'0' does it for me mate. Only 10 weeks and we are back at it!
ReplyDeleteHave had 2 desperate days. No more than 1.5 hrs sleep at a time. Constant headache. Coughing fit to bust every hr on the hr. 2 bananas, a cup of soup and a slice of toast in 48 hrs and the runs through day 2 of affliction. Still - beats teaching!
