Bellbrook Fishing Report week ending 8^th November 2013

A wet, windy week which obviously put people off spending a quiet days fishing. But still there was a couple of hardy individuals who braved the elements. New comer, David Hants, from Torquay, being one of them. He visited a couple of time this week and pulled out a couple of 2lb and a 2½lber in total which wasn't bad going for a novice.

Green still seems to be the preferred colour choice of flies whether that be mixed with a bit of black, brown or white. Jon Saunders from Sampford Peverell had a cracking day hooking two from the normal lakes and three from the Specimen ones. He found a white and green fritz on the bottom worked best for him.

Jo Anderson from Cheriton Fitzpaine also made a welcome return this week, he came to use his half price Rover Classic ticket, £18, for a days fishing and managed to bag three rainbows.

And Oakford locals Sean Mayer, Derek Boldry and Paul Marcus mading a fleeting visit one afternoon as part of a mini competition they were having between the three of them. Sean arrived ahead in the competition after a mornings clay pigeon shooting. A montana seemed to be the favourite fly but unfortuately only Derek was to catch a fish that visit . . . did it end up as a draw then????
