Nomad Weekender 2014

The Nomad clan headed up to Keswick and Braithwaite, during the last weekend of July for a couple of days fluff flinging....

Our first stop on saturday on our way upto our B&B was an Absolute Gem of a venue, just above derwent water.  Ive been asked to keep the fishery name to myself as of the fisheries request.
The water was stunning, when we arrived the sun was shining, with a gentle breeze covering the surface. We booked x3 boats, which were basic, but never the less suited to the calming effect of this fishery.
A few photos of our first venue over the weekend....

Jim McGinley into another at the fishery that shall not be named! (as requested)

After an absolute top days fishing we headed back to the B&B for a shower and a cuppa!
The B&B we used on Saturday night was superb, 5*star quality place, clean modern rooms, all en suite, and the breakfast was spot on!

After a lovely, tasty meal at the Royal Oak in braithwaite. Well worth abit of grub here if you get the chance, the prices wernt cheap, but the food was superb!! I can personally recommend the Pork belly!

Anywho after a few hundreds beers later we headed back to Hermiston for a sleepy!

After a rather boozy night we decided to stay local, so we fished Cocklakes fly fishery which is a matter of a few minutes down the road. Which turned out to be a shocker! - we came to the assumtion that only 4 fish were present in the entire lake. (bad weather and climate, plus we were spoilt the day before at a far superior venue.)

Tightlines Nomads,
Lets get another one of these weekends arranged nearer xmas, a christmas meal / weekend away perhaps?
