- Free fishing
- Fly only
Start with Minkie (6-10) — on the point. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses. If that does not produce, switch depth or speed before changing the pattern entirely.
If the main plan stalls, drop to a size 14–16 midge — switch to a washing-line or suspender rig and change drift line before you change food group.
Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.

- Buzzer is in its seasonal window, boosting the chance of targeted feeding.
- Reservoirs of this kind fish hard at this time of year.
- Trout 1 April → 30 September
