Default Grafham, Elinor or Ravensthorpe?
Anyone fished Grafham, Elinor or Ravensthorpe recently - I've got the day off tomorrow & wondering where to go? I've been catching some rude numbers at Elinor all through the winter on emergers & buzzers, but are the new inmates on the naturals yet? Fancy Grafham if its fishing? All tips gratefully received!

Matt

I believe Ravensthorpe has been fishing well, although haven't been myself for quite a while

Grafham was fishing well on Sunday, with boats anchoring along the north shore area. A black/silver cats whisker worked for me. Others said green/black combinations were catching also.

Black and Silver Cats Whisker? WTF is that?

My minds working overtime trying to picture that one. What's the dressing my friend?

Imagine black marabou with a strip or two of silver tinsel for the tail. The body uses gold/silver fritz-type material. You can buy them at the tackle shop at Grafham.

Thanks LC but that sounds more like a Humungus than a Cat's Whisker
