Re: hampole
I fish there quite a lot (thinking about going tomorrow), it's a nice little place and responds well to a variety of tactics and most of the tried and tested Stillwater patterns will do well there, as Chris mentions buzzers are as good a bet as any, simple black or red ones have worked well for me, I know a guy who fishes down there will religiously fish deep sinking lines and black zonker type lures and always does very well so you may want to try this too, to be fair any lures can do very well on there day, maybe try having a cats whisker and yellow dancer to hand. A floating line should normally be fine but you may need an intermediate or sinker to search out fish lying deep. Ive had a few fish to the dry there too on emerger buzzers, daddy long legs and sedges but I've never had a great deal of success on the dry there but I know others have - probably just my casting!
If you need any more info just let me know.
Cheers, Jon
