Good Day all, we are fishing Draycote on Thursday 22 May in a boat match, has anyone got any up to date info on tactics and areas please? I have read the Rutland Gillies Report, but was wondering if any one has personal info thankyou very much!

Hi Bob
Fished Draycote today and had a hard day of it,however what fish we did catch we got on floating line and buzzers in the Biggin Bay area,all the fish were hard fighters,apparently the lake is getting another stocking of fish on the 20th,tuesday.


Tight Lines

Sorry.should have said,we were in a boat,the fish were quite deep though,the buzzer was fishing under my dry at the 9ft mark,which in turn made landing the fish very interesting.

Intermediate to start then with a washing line I think!! then maybe try the Midge Tip if that isn't working with a team of Buzzers. Thanks for the info Bryan, tight lines mate.

Not sure what rules you'll be fishing to, but if allowable, big lures (white/chartreus) on a Di7 on the drift will probably sort you out the better fish

Di5, two blobs count of 20 and rip it back. You know it works
