Set up a broadside drift and cover the water systematically. Work Cat's Whisker on the bob and Booby on the point.
If the main plan is not working, switch to a smaller, more imitative pattern fished slower and deeper. A change of drift angle can also make a difference.
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.

More straightforward stocked-water behaviour than the upland competition reservoirs, with stronger early-season lure and booby bias but still good natural-fly periods.
A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
Managed as a dedicated fly-fishing venue, it produces reliable brown and rainbow trout on buzzers and nymphs. The shallow nature means fish are often visible, so presentation matters. Daphnia blooms in summer can produce spectacular buzzer hatches. Bank fishing only; the compact scale rewards methodical coverage over distant casting. A water that says 'come spend time here' rather than 'come kill fish' — exactly right for the thoughtful angler.
