fished colwick park lake yesterday, 6th nov. water is nice and clear now,after an algal bloom, price for a day ticket is down to £9.50 for six fish, great value
if you can catch six at this time of the year, but still great if you cant.I must confess though we fished hard on a cold but bright day [bit to bright] we caught three nice conditioned rainbows, they seem to want black and green at the moment. I had two, one on a black and green tadpole bead chain eyes
and one on a montana standard dressing,son had his on black and green taddie, Enjoyed the day off the water 3.30pm
Regards drifter

Hello HWD

Good stuff, keep it up, although I bet the season finishes soon. I've been told theres larger fish being stocked at Colwick lately,can you confirm this.

hi mick, you are right some big fish have already gone in, the three we caught
were around two and a half pounds,but there are much bigger fish in there.
the season stays open till christmas eve,and as soon as this preasant bad weather breaks I shall have another crack at them
