Woods Lake

A short drive from Arthurs, the beautiful water of Woods Lake screams "fish!" The lake is very shallow and always contains some suspended sediment although polaroiding is certainly possible. It's quickly getting a reputation for large fish. The condition on these fish is always first class and their colours are equally superb.

Dun hatches are common, although not as predictable as one would like. Wet fly fishing is a very good fallback when things are quiet, and nymph fishing is nothing short of sensational. For those willing to change their techniques with the conditions, this lake will provide great fishing.

From late spring onwards, Woods Lake is will provide good fishing for anglers of all abilities. Prior to hatches starting, most of the time spent on the water comprises of nymph and wet fly fishing. When the fish start to rise and rise well, the images will stay in your head forever.
