Pardon me if im mistaken but for Upper Tarmer should we be reading Upper Tamar. I fshed the lower Tamar many years ago when i and my family holidayed in Bude. Back then the upper reservoir was a trout only venue.

upper is the coarse fishery now, the lower is a nature reserve - all the fish were removed a few years back to repair the dam

I very much doubt if the same bailiff is policing the res as the last time i walked round it(thirty-odd years ago). He was beside himself with rage as he came accross a toffee paper blowing about on the path.

It had just opened "i think" as a trout fishery and he said he was starting as he meant to carry on.

we were spodding in a scattered pattern but small amounts over an area of say 10-15 yards, then putting boilies out by throwing stick randomly approx 20 -30 boilies.
