Dingle Reservoir

DINGLE TROUT FISHERY/RESERVOIR 

Dingle Reservoir, One of the nomads favoured waters here in the North West being only a stones throw from a good 50% of members. Its an ideal unofficial session meet, as it was today.

Jim McGinley was our Host, providing tips and tactics from his local stillwater...

North West Nomad - Club Treasurer Jim McGinley Hosted todays unofficial outing.

Top day had by all, with only a few nomads in attendance it was still a success, so thanks to John Burrow for collecting tickets from the local shop, and to Jim McGinley for hosting the event.

Tactics varied from Daddy long legs, olive snake, pink snake (believe it or not!), small black beatles, olive crunchers..... anything fished within the top few feet did well. No need for sinking lines today! although a few intermediates and sub surface lines were out to cut through the heavy wind.

Being that this was only a casual  affair, some nomads drifted off around 2pm while the majority were left on the water, so who knows the end catch result! im sure all will be shared on our facebook page this evening after a few swift drinks...

Today's best tactics were travelling light and keep on the move, although those that did remain still for the majority of the day did very well, on a water such as Dingle it often pays to travel light... needing no more than flies, rod, reel, line and net.

Bank House Fly Fishery 5/10/14

The Nomads visited the great small stillwater that is Bank House, this hasn't taken place today but on the 5th October 2014. Sorry for the delay.

What an incredible little water it is, very few fisheries now-a-days provide a rest area for anglers, bank house not only have a lodge with seating area and heating. They also provide tea and coffee making facilities.

The fishing itself is one of the best in the area for smallwaters, well stocked, beautifully maintained. Crystal clear water, providing the heavens haven't opened and flooded the hodder. Which can colour up the water, but only slightly.

All Nomads Caught trout on the day, including some cracking coloured brownies....
