Re: Manningford

I have not fished Manningford but it does look the Bizz! if that water is well oxygenated you should have some reel fun, forgive the pun! It looks like it could be one of those misty magical spots on a summers morning? £ 35 for the full day is fair play if the water matches up to its hype. Nice spot you have found there Greenheart.

Re: Manningford

Hi Ian,
Fished Manningford the Christmas before last and had a fantastic day.

Because it is spring fed, the fish fight well as GAZJB said, but they are the best fish I have tasted.

Was using these flies, in the deeper water, at the car park end of the lake:



Floating line, with sinking leader. They do stock some big fish, so heavy tippet needed.(fluorocarbon of course)

Elliot

Dude! Where did you get that fly collection? That looks like something John would own.

Re: Manningford

Just my own dry fly box, for all my free fishing on the Frome, that I don't do...

Re: Manningford

Don't wind me up. I can't believe you don't take advantage of that.
If I grew another 11 inches and dyed my hair blonde I would pretend I was you to get some great fishing.

Do you still have a golden ticket for Dorcheser?

Re: Manningford

Yep, We've got three day tickets left for DFC. One of the new members had three booked, so doesn't need them anymore.
