Grafham Water week ending 13 March

2 years ago

Rod average 2.12

The Fishing at Grafham is still proving tricky and location is key if you want to bag up. This is reflected in the catch returns which shows many anglers caught their limit whilst others blanked. Most of the fish caught have been coming from Plummers Bank right down to the south side of the Dam. The fish are reportedly very high up in the water and those that have caught well have done so using floating lines or sink tips. Small white lure patterns seem to be taking the majority of fish but some anglers have also reported catching on buzzers, diawl bachs and other small nymph patterns. The north shore has started slowly in comparison to last year but it has still produced a few fish, most notably a cracking 4.7oz Rainbow which was taken by one of our season ticket holders. The Harbour Arms have also produced the odd fish but nothing consistent as of yet. 

 The weekend saw us hosting another successful Perchmania and Perch to 5lb plus were caught.   

We have two stockings arranged for the coming week and the weather is looking good for fishing, with a bit of luck the sunshine will get the buzzers hatching and we will see the rod average rocket. 

Season tickets are available to purchase in person from Rutland, Grafham and Pitsford Lodges (don’t forget to bring a photo for your new permit). 
We look forward to seeing you soon.
