Weekly trout fishing report for week ending 29th October, 2012

A great week for fishing at Wellsfield Trout Fishery for fly and bait fishing.  The average weight at Wellsfield this week was 3lb 2oz as many 4-6lb fish were caught.  All 3 lochans at Wellsfield Fishery fished very well for fly and bait fishing.

Fly fishers caught most fish 3-4ft under the surface using floating or sink tip lines, counting the flies down.  Bait anglers have found ledgered baits (worms / maggots).  Spinning using small mepps also worked well.

FISH OF THE WEEK was a 12lb Rainbow Trout caught by J Bibby (England) whilst staying at Wellsfield Farm Holiday Lodges.  (see photo below).

Best flies this week: Black / Green Nomad, Craft Eye Cats, Sparklers, Buzzers, Diawl Bachs. Best Baits: Maggots, Worms and Small Mepps.
