| Set of 6am to blagdon on a cold wet morning in the valley,s, arrived just after 7am which is good for us we usely get lost. We fished at cheddar water by the dam,onlyone person there plenty of room for 3 of us . I set up with a intermediat mini cat top dropper, dail bach middle, and gold head damsel on the point,first cast into a fish for got how powerful those blagdon fish are. WE caught on avariety of flies ,damsel,dail bachs,blackgreen tadpoles,black buzzers,and boobies,ifinished the day with 10 fish,kept 6 to 5lb. MOST of the fishermen were over on north shore ,butcomb ,we had people saying they wasnt catching any thing, so they slowly came over this side of the lake were most people had their fish at greenlawn and rainbow point. Plenty of big fish between 5lb and 7lb being caught every were. We also had our photo taken by a bristol paper ,who wanted action shot s for the angling section,any of you bristol fishermen coulld let me no. the weather was great light breeze coming of the dam over cast and mild. Cant wait to get back there again a fantastic day out. ![]() |

| Re: Blagdon result Well done, a nice session by the sound of it...as Greenheart said, it's not easy fishing in this weather condition, so any fish caught is well deserved. ![]() __________________ There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind." - Washington Irving |

| Well done Flyman what a result. Great to see people who travel far to fish do well. Blagdon is not an easy place to master. |
