FISHERY REPORT - WEEK ENDING 7/3/10
Last week there were 124 rods caught 401 fish for an average of 3.23.
The week started slowly but by the weekend the fishery and Cocks Close in particular, was in excellent form.
The biggest fish of the week was a 13lb rainbow caught by Ian Nelson of Solihull who was fishing from a boat on Park Meadow and he took this and another at just over 6lb on a black Lure fished on an intermediate line. Another 12lb rainbow came from Park Meadow this one was caught by Mark Quinney of Lapworth who used a white Loynton Guinea to catch it. The best from Cocks Close was an 11lb 8oz rainbow which fell to Sam Aspen of Tamworth who fished from a boat and he took it on a Cats Whisker Lure.
The Troutmasters Fish Off was held on the bank of Cocks Close on Saturday with eight anglers trying to win the honour of representing the fishery at the Final. The event fished superbly well with an average of 11 fish per angler and the winner was Mark Sturgess of Nuneaton who caught 24 fish, mostly on black or white Lures fished on an intermediate line. Mark was runner-up in the Final last year and we hope he can go one better this time.
Best patterns are Cats Whisker, Damsel Nymph, white Fritz, black Tadpole, orange Fritz and Bloodworm.
The best area has been the high bank on the platforms but fish are being caught all around the pool at Cocks Close.
