Fishing at Chalk Springs is different from most other stillwater fisheries because of its clear water. You can see fish in the lakes and observe their reaction to your flies - but remember they can also see you! - it can help, therefore, if you try to move around the lakes as much as possible, so that the fish are less wary. |

Subtlety is the key word for best results. Small weighted patterns are usually best - damsels, hare's ear, PTN, buzzers and lead bugs - although brightly coloured flies can also be effective. Dry fly activity includes a mayfly hatch, alder, daddy long-legs and pond olives as well as prolific hatches of damsels and sedge.
The controlled weed growth and surrounding plant life ensure a wide variety of insects inhabit the lakes.
