			<description><![CDATA[The Fishery will open at 8am and close at 6.00pm
We still have four boats for the 6th and seven for 7th 
The fishing should be excellent with around 1200 rainbows from 1lb 8oz to the mid teens stocked just days before we open. Last year we opened three weeks later and 89 anglers caught 826 fish to 14lb this gave a very impressive rod average of 9.3 
Bank anglers usually have the best of the sport, Paul Bowker brother Andrew and friend Phil Snath had 141 fish  to 6lb between them from the dam on lures such as Dawson's Olive, Cats Whisker and Black and Olive Nomads fished on  intermediate lines. Boats should do well with fish usually found in the top 6ft.Last year Andrew Davison and Ray Barrett had 52 between them on small lures and nymphs fished on floating lines. All the boats caught 20 plus fish. 
All last years catch returns can be found on the Catch Return Archive on the web site]]></description>

Saturday 1st August 
19 Anglers caught 80 Rainbows and 10 Brown Trout.  Rod average 4.7
33 Fish were kept at an average weight of 2lb 12oz.

Well the weather forecast was wrong yet again the wind wasn’t as strong as forecast and had died down to a light breeze by 1oclock. The heavy rain was more like a heavy drizzle and stopped after lunch leaving perfect fishing conditions with very few anglers to take advantage of it. We had boats cancelled because of the forecast and rods stayed away those who did come had some very good sport.

G Thorn caught twelve rainbows and one brown from the moorside and Whitby end of the dam. Robert Thompson caught nine rainbows on CDC Shuttlecocks from the top moorside block and Mrs Olive Murray had five Rainbows and two Browns on shuttlecocks from the same area.
