Summer Roundup

24/2/2021

0 Comments

 
In case you’re wondering why you haven’t heard from us much over the last couple of months, Millbrook goes into a sort of hibernation in reverse from about Christmas until the end of February. Typically, this period of high summer is often too warm for good fishing on our lakes: we’d rather not guide at all, than have a guest book a day that turns out to be too hot for decent lake fishing.
 
But then, with trout and nature being what they are, we’ve actually had an unusually cool and (until recently) wet summer, so in turn, the trout have been unusually active. This means the odd random guiding day, booked at close range, has been successful.
 
More importantly, the lack of heat and good lake levels will see us start the ‘proper’ guiding season in great shape. As we get back into full operation next week, not only do we have a range of waters in prime condition, but it looks like the trout have grown better than they normally would over summer. Without the stresses of heat and low water to inhibit growth rates, we’re noticing many pre-summer ‘stockies’ are now approaching a kilo. As for the bigger fish, anything seems possible. For the next few months, small trout may be hard to find at Millbrook!
