After much thought we have decided not to reopen the fishery for Trout fishing for the foreseeable future.
Results of Bellbrook v Temple Team Fish Off November 2014
The Team Fish Off took place here yesterday with 9 anglers from Bellbrook and 6 from Temple.
The weather was kind to us and we had a beautiful autumnal day with no wind or rain!
In all 51 fish were caught but bragging rights went to the team from Bellbrook who caught the most fish per person. The team from Temple had the overall individual winner - John Twine from Liskeard managing 5 fish for 13-4. John may not have had the biggest bag but the aim on the day was to catch the most fish! Second and Third place went to Ian Pinwill from Spreyton and Pete Simons of Bridgewater (both fishing for Bellbrook) catching 4 fish for 16-12 and 15-4 respectively.
The most popular flies were Damsel Nymph and Appetizer with an Orange Bead.
It was a good day's sport with everyone catching and good bit of banter as well.
Many thanks to Allan Jukes from Bellbrook and Julian Jones from Temple for helping to organise what we we hope will be a series of such events. Thanks also go to the lovely Ellen for her hard work providing bacon butties and a lovely lunch.
