May 2009..

The dry weather continued through May, this time accompanied by some extremely hot bright weather. Despite the weather all three lakes remained crystal clear and stalking conditions were exceptional. Due to the hot bright days fishing was at its best early in the morning. However anglers that adapted their tactics in the afternoon to small nymphs and buzzers were rewarded with some nice fish.

Top tactics for the month were to use small lures (damsels, nomads and cats whisker) in the morning and as the fish switch off chasing the lures, put a small buzzer on. The fish will often take the buzzer on the drop, fished at close range. Using this method it is difficult to see the small buzzer in the water, so you want to look for the response of the fish, signalled by the mouth opening. As soon as you see this, strike as they are quick to reject the fly.

The fishing on the carrier stream was utilised by good numbers of anglers during May and some nice fish were landed. This year saw a decent hatch of Mayfly and surface action was exhilarating at times.

This month saw 18 double figure fish caught, with the largest being a rainbow trout of 15lb 8oz caught by Mr C. Tims (pictured above) from lake 2 on the ever reliable blue flash damsel. There were two double figure brown trout caught during the month. Regular angler Chris Weightman (pictured below) caught a cracking 13lb 9oz brown from lake 2 on a damsel. The other brown was caught by Mr M. Standen again from lake 2 and weighed exactly 10lb.

Other fish of note were a 14lb rainbow trout from lake 1 on a damsel, caught by Mr C. McCormack. Mr T. Hall had a 13lb 12oz rainbow from lake 2 on a black, gold head daddy longlegs. Mr M. Burlingham also had a 13lb 12oz rainbow from lake 2 on a green and white damsel. Chris Weightman caught another double in May, this time a rainbow of 12lb 12oz from lake 2, caught on a GRHE.

April 2009..

April again was an extremely dry month, with very little rain. The water was absolutely gin clear and with the calm bright days, stalking the fish was the order of the day, especially to catch the larger fish. As far as angling pressure is concerned the fishery was packed, especially during the weekends.

Breaking news this month is that world famous fly fisherman Charles Jardine will be on site to answer any of your fly-fishing questions. Three dates have been organised on the 14th June, 12th July and 9th August.

Anyone is welcome to come along and take advantage of his wealth of knowledge for the price of a day ticket. If interested please call 01962 779312 to book your days fishing.

Fish were taken on a wide range of tactics this month, from working large lures quickly through the water to slowly retrieving small buzzers just under the surface. Other successful tactics included stalking fish with stalking bugs or small weighted nymphs.

The brown trout season kicked off on the 3rd April and anglers were quick to take advantage of the carrier fishing which is included in the price of your day ticket. For fishing the carrier you need a 7 to 8 foot, 3 / 4 weight, light leader. Small dry flies and weighted nymphs fished upstream will work well.

Successful fly patterns for the month included blue flash damsel, cats whisker and mayfly nymph. Anglers also had success on small red and black buzzers, particularly in the afternoon when the fishing becomes a bit trickier. As far as big fish are concerned April was a great month with 12 double figure fish coming out.

Fish of the month was a beautiful 14lb 4oz rainbow trout caught by Mr G Jenkins from lake 1 on a gold head damsel.

Fisherman of the month was Mr D. Swales who spent 4 days at the fishery and in this time caught three double figure fish (14lb, 13lb 4oz and 11lb 12oz).

Other successful anglers were Chris Weightman who caught two doubles of 13lb 4oz and 10lb both from lake1.

Richard Martin (pictured left) caught the only big brown of the month from lake 3 and weighed in at 13lb 10oz and he took the fish on a Walkers Mayfly Nymph.

 

 

Mr D. Reynolds (pictured) had a nice 12lb 10oz rainbow from lake 3 on a gold head damsel. Mr D. Beach also had a cracking rainbow of 14lb 8oz from lake 2 on a damsel.

Remember it is worth giving us a ring to book your days fishing as there are already a lot of fully booked days in the diary.

 

 

 

 

March 2009..

The month of March was devoid of rain, apart from the odd night time sprinkling. The dry weather was also accompanied by some warm, calm days, giving rise to excellent stalking conditions. The water quality and clarity was superb, also aiding the stalking conditions. All these fishing factors led to a busy month at the fishery with a lot of fish coming out.

Breaking news from the fishery this month is that Fishery Manager Sam is back to work after a very successful knee operation. Despite the success of the operation he still remains extremely grumpy and anglers should approach with caution!

Tactics for the month are beginning to change from the colder winter months, with anglers now looking to use more imitative fly patterns rather than large bright lures.

Buzzers should account for a lot of fish from now and throughout the summer. If the fish become fussy, switching to a small buzzer will often put a fish or two on the bank.

Don't forget the fish will start to look up for their food know, so give the dry fly a go.

Successful fly patterns for the month included black nomad and black and gold Rutland Humungus. Also accounting for a lot of fish were the blue flash damsel and bloodworm patterns.

Fish of the month was an 11lb 8oz rainbow trout caught by Mr A. Kernick on a Pheasant Tail Nymph. Other fish of note included a 10lb 10oz blue trout caught by Mr. P. Haynes from lake 2 ( this is pictured left ).

Doug Williams also cashed in with a 10lb rainbow caught on a damsel from lake 2. It is worth ringing us on 01962 779312 to book your days fishing as we have already a lot of fully booked days in the diary.

 

February 2009..

What a start to February it was with the whole country hit hard by severe snow. Naturally because of the weather there was little fishing effort during the early part of the month. When anglers started to appear again they were rewarded with some cracking fish, despite the cold. The middle of the month saw an end to the cold snap and the air and water temperature started to rise. This resulted in some good fishing. Most anglers walked away with their bag limit, which was more than often 20lb+ for four fish.

Tactics for the month were dependent on the weather. During the cold weather it was important to get the fly down, either with a floating line and weighted fly or by using intermediate or sinking lines. During the milder weather fish were higher up in the water and fish were taken on dry flies.

Fishing on the carrier comes to an end on March 14th for grayling and will be closed until April 3rd when the brown trout season starts. One angler that took advantage of the grayling fishing was Steve Moon, who rolled back the years using his old Farlows 7ft split cane rod and landed two beautiful grayling both around the 1lb mark. The picture below shows one of Steve's grayling.

Successful fly patterns for the month included gold head damsels and gold head daddies. Black proved to be an attractive colour to the fish with black nomads and black and gold humungus accounting for many fish.

Fish of the month was a 12lb 8oz rainbow trout caught by Graham Tuck from lake 2 on a damsel ( shown below ). He also had a fish of 9lb. Both of these fish were part of a bag of 55lb for eight fish. Despite this being the only double caught there were plenty of fish between 6 and 8 pounds being caught.

Days are already starting to fill up in the Diary, so please think about booking your days fishing to avoid disappointment. Remember we have a fully stocked tackle shop for all your fishing needs.

 

January 2009..

The bitterly cold weather that was with us at the end of December continued through the early part of January. We had a brief rest from the cold during the middle part of the month but as I write this report (3rd Feb) the fishery is covered with a deep blanket of snow. The picture below is of lake 1. Angling pressure was light during the month, due to the weather conditions, but those that did venture out were more than often rewarded with their bag limit. Tactics for the month were the same as last, with floating lines, long leaders and weighted flies.

However anglers did have success using intermediate and sinking lines. During the colder conditions a slow to medium speed retrieve will tempt the fish. Fishing on the carrier stream was again limited during the month, however the odd grayling was picked up by anglers willing to give it a go. The colder weather appeared to make the grayling form small shoals of maybe 4 or 5 and if found anglers reported catching 2 or 3 fish from the shoal. Once again small weighted nymphs accounted for most of these fish.

Successful fly patterns for the month included the ever reliable damsel, particularly the blue flash damsel. Other good fish taking patterns for the month included gold head daddies, cat's whisker and bloodworm patterns. Fish of the month was a mint 12lb 4oz rainbow from lake 2. The fish was taken by regular angler Alan Drewitt on one of his special damsel patterns.

Other fish of note were a 12lb rainbow caught by Mr G.Tuck (pictured below). This fish was from lake 1 and was taken on a bloodworm. Mr R. Stephens had an 11lb 2oz rainbow from lake 2, again on a damsel. The 2009 fishery diary is already rapidly starting to fill up with co-operate days and day ticket anglers, so if you're thinking of booking up a days fishing you may want to book soon as you may miss out on you're preferred day.

The tackle shop goes from strength to strength. Give us a call if you need anything specific - we can always supply it. We also stock a good supply of coarse fishing tackle.

 

December 2008..

The start of the month provided us with some lovely mild weather. With the milder weather came some first class fishing conditions. However the mild weather did not last for long before we were hit by some bitterly cold weather, summed up fittingly by the pictures below. Despite the arctic weather conditions, the fishing was good, with most anglers catching their bag limit.

Tactics during the colder weather should be kept simple with floating lines, longish leaders and weighted flies doing the business. If you want you can fish a sinktip or intermediate line. On milder days don't forget to look for signs of rising fish and give the dry fly a go. Also another alternative during milder weather is to try stimulator patterns worked fairly quickly across the surface of the lake. The more ripple on the surface the better. Muddler patterns would also work well under similar conditions. This method can induce some savage takes, so maybe up your breaking strain of leader and check your knots.

Fishing on the carrier was fairly limited during December, but those who did give it a try were rewarded with some nice grayling. Weighted nymphs accounted for most of these fish. Successful fly patterns for the month included damsels and cats whiskers. These two flies seemed to occupy most of the flies used in the catch return. The larger fish appeared to be vulnerable to gold head daddies, which accounted for two of the doubles caught in December.

Fish of the month was a 12lb rainbow caught by Mr N. Plunkett. He caught this fish from lake 1 on an orange damsel. Other fish of note included an 11lb 8oz rainbow from lake 1. This fish was caught by Mr S. Cole (pictured above). He caught it on a sunk daddy. Mr S. Butler caught an 11lb 6oz rainbow from lake 2, again the fly of choice was a gold head daddy. A 10lb 2oz rainbow was caught by Mr S. Alassad from lake 2 on a damsel.

2008 proved to be a successful first year for the new shop. With the success of the shop has come an increase in the variety and range of equipment being stocked. So for all your fly fishing needs pop in and see us.

 

November 2008..

Settled weather occupied most of this month with bright, cold, frosty days. The bright days and crystal clear water allowed anglers to take advantage of some late season stalking, which accounted for some nice fish. December, hopefully will see much of the same weather conditions, which will allow anglers to continue to stalk their fish. However if you're not into stalking try fishing a large bright lure on a floating or intermediate line with a quickish retrieve. This method often accounts for some fast and furious action, especially on lake 2.

Also look for any signs of rising fish on milder days. Hooking a fish on a dry fly in winter is testing but exciting if you get a take. Fishing continues on the carrier but just for grayling. The carrier holds some good grayling, which can be a nice distraction from fishing the lakes. Please remember not to disturb any spawning trout.

Successful fly patterns for the month shifted from black to green, with damsels accounting for a lot of fish. Sunk daddy longlegs also fished well throughout the month. November was another good month for double figure fish, with eleven being caught.

Fish of the month was a colossal, fully finned magnificent brown trout equalling the fishery brown trout record of 22lb 8oz, pictured left. This fish was caught by Steve Gynes. It was Steve's first visit to Avington and amazingly his first cast of the day. He hooked the fish on a sunk daddy longlegs, recommended by staff member Dorjee. The fish gave a good account of itself taking over 30 minutes to land. Steve was supposed to be fishing for salmon on the River Tweed, but it was cancelled due to high water. I'm sure this fish of a lifetime made up for it. Well done Steve!

Other fish of note was yet another big blue trout of 19lb 1oz caught by Mr A. Kernick from lake 2 on a damsel. Mr J. Alcock had a beauty of a rainbow from lake 1 on a daddy, weighing in at 15lb 8oz. Lake 2 turned up a nice 14lb 8oz rainbow for Mr. S. Davies on a black and green lure. Regular angler Mike Evans was rewarded for his efforts throughout the season, when he landed a 16lb brown trout. The fly that did the damage was a black and red nymph.

Another brown trout was landed from lake 2 by Mr D. Butler, the fish weighed 12lb 12oz. Mr D. Hall Pike landed a mint 13lb rainbow from lake 1 on a daddy. Also from lake 1 was a 12lb 11oz rainbow caught by Dave Kirkland, on a black nomad. On the same day Joan Russell caught a 10lb 4 oz rainbow from lake 2 on a daddy. The last fish of note was an 11lb 4oz blue trout caught by Mr M. Byrne from lake 1 on a blue flash damsel.

The shop continues to expand and is now fully stocked. With Christmas fast approaching the shop provides an ideal place to buy a gift for someone. Also we sell gift vouchers and are available by calling 01962 779312.

 

Seasons greetings to all our customers from the Avington Staff (Bob, Sam, Dorjee and Cameron).

 

October 2008..

The first signs of winter appeared this month with some bitterly cold frosty mornings with daytime temperatures struggling to get into double figures. Despite this cold weather fishing was first class. The lakes remained crystal clear and the water temperatures hovered just below and above 10 degrees celsius. On bright, sunny, still days stalking was possible, however these types of day were a rarety.

Mr Robertson was lucky enough to catch one of the big Avington blue troutNovember should see much of the same fishing conditions, with fish willing to take just about anything you cast at them. Stalking will be possible weather permitting. The brown trout season came to an end on the carrier stream at the end of the month. Alex Jardine and his friend had a great day on the carrier, catching some nice grayling to just over a pound. They also had a few nice brownies. Upstream nymphing accounted for most of these fish. The carrier will remain open for grayling only fishing during the winter. Please be carefull not to disturb any spawning trout during the winter.

It was difficult to pin down the most successfull fly patterns of the month, but black appeared to be a good colour with the Rutland Humungus in black and gold and the black Nomad accounting for many fish. Damsel patterns, sunk daddy long legs also did well this month.

A superb 18lb 1oz brown trout caught by Austin KerseyOctober was a cracking month for big fish with 17 doubles coming out. Fish of the month was a superb 18lb 1oz brown trout caught by Austin Kersey on a white and green Nomad from lake 1. This was the biggest brown of the season.

Mr Robertson was lucky enough to catch one of the big Avington blue trout, which weighed in at 17lb 6oz and was caught on a damsel from lake 2. Biggest rainbow of the month was 16lb 8oz caught by Mr Lavington from lake 1 also on a damsel.

Other fish of note were a 15lb 8oz brown from lake 1 caught by Mr Saunders on a gold head damsel. Mr K. Jones had a 15lb rainbow from lake 2 again on a damsel. Paul Butterworth had a mint 14lb 4oz rainbow on a black and gold Humungus from lake 3.

The big fish messiah Ken Sheppard caught a good rainbow of 13lb 9oz from lake 1 on a Sheps Shrimp. Mr T. Sweet had a nice 13lb 8oz rainbow from lake 2 on a damsel. Also from lake 2 was a 13lb 10oz rainbow caught by Mr S. Hardman on a Daddy.

With Christmas coming up our fully stocked tackle shop is the ideal place to buy a gift for someone. We also sell gift vouchers, which can be obtained from the shop or by ringing 01962 779312.

Don't forget that despite the colder weather conditions the fishing can be amazing, so why not pop down and see us.

 

September 2008..

This months weather was very much a mixed bag with overcast rainy conditions at the start, but towards the end of the month the sun made an appearance. The lakes remained crystal clear and as water temperatures dropped, fishing just got better and better as the month progressed. Stalking proved to be the best technique to catch the bigger fish when light levels allowed.

October, weather permitting, should be a fantastic fishing month, with stalking being the order of the day to expose the bigger fish. The carrier stream fishing was tricky at times this month, but anglers prepared to be patient and stealthy reaped the rewards with some nice brown trout and grayling. Upstream nymphing accounted for most of these fish.

With the first considerable showing of daddy longlegs, anglers took advantage with dry and goldhead daddies, accounting for many fish. Other successful patterns included damsel patterns, rutland humungus (black) and buzzers (red & black). The fish of the month was a superb 19lb rainbow trout caught on lake 1 on a blue flash damsel by Ray McElhinneiy.

 

Angler of the month without a doubt was regular Alan Drewitt who on two visits to Avington this month landed two double figure fish on each visit. On the 2nd of the month he landed a 17lb 9oz rainbow and a 16lb 8oz blue, with both fish coming from lake 2 on a blue damsel.

Al was back again on the 16th to claim two more doubles of 10lb 3oz and 13lb 3oz. These fish were caught on a goldhead green and black montana.

Other fish of note included a 10lb 8oz rainbow caught by Andrew Knox on a PTN from lake 2. Julie Searle caught a 13lb rainbow from lake 2 on a blue flash damsel. Finally the month wouldn't be complete without Ken Sheppard catching a double and he didn't disapoint when he landed a 14lb 4oz rainbow from lake 2 on a Sheps Shrimp.

The tackle shop continues to be popular and the selection of equipment grows. We stock many top brands (Greys, Snowbee, Guideline and Fulling Mill) and if we haven't got it in store we are happy to order it for you. We also stock a good selection of carp and coarse fishing tackle including Gardner, Mustad and Chub.

 

 

August 2008..

Was that really August? Sadly yes, and one of the wettest on record. Despite the heavy and at times continuous rain, the temperatures remained high. The water temperatures climbed to 16c at times, which made the fishing very challenging. However August was one of our best months for double figure fish, with plenty of smaller fish banked for those who braved the downpours. As usual the damsel patterns worked well in the mornings, while in the afternoon Flexi-floss Bloodworms and Montanas were effective.

The fly of the month was the Cats Whisker, which accounted for one double and countless other fish stripped fast or twitched off the bottom, with equal success. Mr. T. Inglis kicked off our super run of doubles with a 13lb Rainbow from lake 1 on the 7th using a green nymph. A Yellow Dancer proved the downfall of a magnificent lake 2 18.1 lb Blue Trout, for Mr. J. Spoors on the 8th. Dr. P. Turner took an equally impressive 17lb Blue again from lake 2 on the 9th using a white Stalking Bug.

Fishery regular and friend Terry Bennet had a mornings fishing to remember on the 10th, when he landed a personal best 19.8lb rainbow from lake 1 using a black Daddy. Congratulations to you Terry from all the team at Avington. On the same day Neil Huxham battled an 11.8lb Rainbow from lake 2 using a Damsel. On the 14th Lionel Swain used the fly of the month to land a 14.14lb rainbow from lake 2. Ken Sheppard proved once more he knows best, when his Sheps Shrimp sprung into action on the 15th for a cracking 17.9lb Brown Trout from lake 1. Michael Standen took an impressive 14.8lb Rainbow using a Damsel from lake 3, proving to all you doubters the awesome potential of lake 3.

Bloodworms have worked particularly well when the weather has been hot, as Adam Cain proved with his 13.8lb lake 2 Rainbow. Richard Cawte used a buzzer on the same day and same lake for a Rainbow of 11lb. Mr. Jones again with a Bloodworm pattern rounded his and our month perfectly with a beautiful 13.12lb rainbow on the 31st. Once again the Browns have proved elusive this month, despite being clearly visible in all three lakes, hopefully September will see a few more on the banks.

This month the carrier has again been under fished, with only a handful of anglers enjoying the uninterrupted terrific sport available, several good sized Grayling have been landed alongside the stunning Brownies. This month we hope to launch our Carp and expand our coarse range of tackle in the shop. Please ring for availability of any tackle you may require, and please spread the word, Avington is Winchester’s only fully stocked tackle shop.

July 2008..

July was a hot month, and although there were occasional heavy downpours the water level in the carrier and lakes was down. Despite the soaring temperatures and low flows the lakes remained crystal clear. Fingers crossed, we have seen the last of the algae this year. Fishing has been steady regardless of the heat with 9 large fish out this month and some lovely 7-8lb rainbows appearing on the bank. The fly of the month has been the gold headed bloodworm. However the Montana and Hares Ear Nymphs are still producing.

The Damsel patterns continue their normal success along with the Down and Dirty Olives, which are best stripped quickly. Windy afternoons have produced a ripple on the water; as a result spotting fish for stalking has been tricky on some days. However using Lead Bugs, Buzzers and Hares Ear Nymphs has rewarded those who persevered. Using something unusual can often produce over the regular patterns.

Ken Sheppard continued his never ending run of success over our larger fish with a 16.8lb fish on the 4th from lake 3, and a 20.8lb fish on the 20th from lake 2, both were rainbows and caught using his own “Sheps Shrimp” pattern and stalking tactics. David Maynard Hill landed a lake 2, 11lb rainbow using an orange fritz on the 5th, after a furious 10 minute battle.

A mystery angler who left no name landed a 10lb rainbow on the 6th along with Mr A Smith who also tamed a 10 pounder on the same day, both from lake 3. On the 18th Joshua Wong used a lead bug to tempt his 14lb rainbow, from lake 2. Ian Williams also caught a rainbow of 9.8lb from lake 1 on the 19th using a White Marabou. Missing out by just 4oz of the magic 10lb barrier was another mystery angler with another rainbow, on the 25th from lake 1.

Fishery regular Chris Dulley took an enormous rainbow of 17.12lb, from lake 2, using a Bloodworm Nymph just in time for this report on the 30th, (congratulations Chris). Getting the clever browns out of the stock ponds is enough of a challenge for our team, which explains why none of them have been landed from the lakes this month, despite being regularly spotted by the ever frustrated anglers. The carrier stream is as beautiful as ever, with the banks in full bloom and the birdlife abundant.

The clarity of water allows terrific sport, with the grayling and trout easy to spot, yet challenging to catch. This stretch of water is hugely under fished and remains one of Hampshire’s best kept secrets, and amazingly available to you, the lucky fishermen, for the price of a day ticket. As we now have a number of top suppliers in the tackle department, please feel free to enquire should you need any tackle.

June 2008..

This month was largely dry and bright, which can make the fishing rather challenging, especially in the afternoon. However most fishermen caught well in the morning, and those who persevered in the afternoon were rewarded using small flies. The warm weather and lower levels on the river brought with them our seasonal algal bloom. Lakes 2 and 3 became quite green for a week or so, which had made visibility an issue. Although fish were still caught using a fast retrieve through the coloured water. Sometimes when the fish cannot see out of the water it can actually improve the fishing. Lake 1 remained clear, unaffected by the dreaded algae.

Plenty of fish were taken from the lakes despite the soaring temperatures and seasonal difficulties. As we have had some cooler days and a few patchy showers at the end of the month, the algae seems to be subsiding with the water becoming clearer each day, as we don't use chemicals or invasive techniques on our lakes the algae problem will be left to conclude its natural processes.

The fly of the month was the black and green Montana, which proved the downfall of many shy, afternoon trout. Fishing in the mornings was fast and furious as ever, with most of the usual flies effective, particularly the white or orange nomads. Along with the ever successful damsel patterns; mayfly nymphs, Rutland humungus and cats wiskers all worked well.

The afternoons fished inconsistently although those who changed tactics succeeded where others failed. Buzzers were particularly useful along with bloodworm and stalking bug patterns. Seeking out individual fish is a must, when the sun has been on the water all day. When anglers repeatedly cast the same fly over and over again the fish soon 'wise up' to particular patterns.

June proved to be a difficult month for double figure fish, although several were hooked and lost. The noted larger fish this month were a 9.12lb rainbow from lake1, caught by Rupert, who neglected to leave his surname, (next time please Rupert). Mr A Robinson landed a 9.4lb Rainbow using a small stalking pattern, from the 'greened up' lake 2, Mr Simon Grove missed the 10lb mark by half a pound when he tamed another rainbow of 9.8lb again from lake 1.

Fishery and big fish regular Ken Shepard again showed us all how it's done, when he defeated a 14.8lb rainbow using the now mythical 'shep shrimp'. Grundon Waste Management had their annual corporate day with us on the 27th, which was enjoyed by all who took part. The novices were lucky enough to have the expert guidance of Stanley Conway who helped the group catch over 40 fish in total. The more experienced fishermen from Grundon caught well, topped by Mike Crowther who landed the fish of the day, a fin perfect 10.6lb rainbow from lake1.

Contrary to the presence of some monster browns, none have been banked this month, despite showing an interest in the odd well placed gold head hares ear or black buzzer. The carrier has come into its own, as the summer foliage has softened the improvements completed by the team back in the winter. Fish are now protected and thriving in the cover created. Some lovely brownies up to 3lb have been caught with the ever present grayling starting to show in the crystal clear flows. Although tricky this stream offers exciting chalkstream action, included in the price of a day ticket!

The tackle shop continues to go from strength to strength as our range of stock ever increases. Alongside the fly gear we now stock a range of carp and coarse tackle, for those wishing to fish the local rivers and lakes. We are always happy to order in or advise on any tackle you may require.
