- 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.
A fry-imitating pattern stripped through the margins can save a blank in autumn.
Caperer should come on through the afternoon as the water warms.
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 well at this time of year.
- Trout Season not verified against the operator (checked 2026-10-01); no season gate applied. Confirm with the fishery.
