It’s good to see them swim away.

The river trout season ended on a high note with the capture and release of a 3lb sea trout.

More than half of the rainbows caught were over 2lbs.

The fish at Little Bognor were feeding well in the autumn sun taking buzzers and dry flies.

After the recent rains, I’m keeping my fingers crossed the river may recover in time for the very end of the season. It’s at bank-full today!

Many thanks to Rob and Tom for feeding everyone at the Autumn BBQ.

Thank you Poppett for your amazing cakes !

Now that the water temperature has dropped and the rainbow lakes have been stocked for the autumn, catch numbers have increased dramatically.

It is good to see that a graying was caught yesterday on Beat D, near the riffle.

The rainbow lakes have been restocked and as the temperature has dropped significantly, catch and release is back. As always, we urge members to be ultra-careful when releasing fish. – Andrew Thompson

The water temperature at Great Springs is 17 degrees. The cold nights should bring the temperature down to a level that will enable the autumn stocking of the rainbow lakes.

The cooler weather and the rain will bring the water temperature down and there should be some better fishing next week.

It was difficult fishing last week, hopefully the rainbow lakes will cool down during September and the usual excellent end-of-season fishing can commence.
