HAWKRIDGE has fished well this week, with plenty of fish showing on the surface all over the lake.

Some excellent fish have been caught this week including a 7lb 6oz rainbow, a 5lb 10oz wild brown trout and a 3lb 6oz golden trout.

P. Elson had the heaviest bag limit weighing 19lb, D. Churchill had a five-fish limit weighing 18lb 10oz and Colin Greenway returned with a bag limit totalling 18lb.

Fishing the shallows from boats is highly recommended.

Anglers who fish floating lines with Buzzers, Damsels, Daddy’s or Blobs return with good catches.

A good week at Clatworthy. Best bag of the week was caught by Mr Rabbits, his five-fish weighed 19lb 9oz.

C. Bee had a limit of 17lb. The best season ticket bag was landed by C. Woolfenden, his four fish weighed 16lb 7oz which included a 5lb rainbow.

Main tactics were intermediate lines with Damsel, Little Viva, Montana and Fry Patterns.

Some fish have been taken on floating lines with Buzzers and Diawl Bachs.

The lodge bank and Rowes End continues to fish well and with the airline on this week, boats should do well.
