The Annual Lake Windamere Trip! This podcast was all about our big trip to the iconic Windamere Dam. A special place on the calendar for spring each year and it was great to get back to this system and hook into some yellas.
This year was very different with a completely new lake as levels have risen to 88% (and still rising). This has changed the entire landscape and layout of the lake; we have new challenges of locating fish and trying to effectively fish the flooded edges and vegetation.
In this podcast we give you a complete run down on our trip, how it unfolded, how we managed to catch fish in tough conditions, plenty of stories (and funny bits), the content we created and our opinions on what Windamere will be like going forward. Even if you don’t plan on fishing Windamere, but you do love chasing yellas, this is a podcast you want to listen to!
