    00:00 Why I'm here at Damflask Reservoir!
    01:57 Session One Swim (The Bay)
    03:17 Session Two Swim (The Plantation)
    05:07 Session Three (The Shallows)
    Large reservoirs can often be very difficult to fish especially in winter when the waters cold and when the levels are up so gaining as much knowledge of the water as possible can often help. In this film we take a look at some of the areas we fish on a local reservoir to see EXACTLY what it likes under the surface!

    Mate, my heartfelt thanks go out to you for showing this video. I have been fishing for 40 years ( and still do) - from the top of the premier league ( southern) beating the mighty Dorking and Essex teams, to winning numerous individual matches, fly fishing for the national side and carping with the best of them. And I can honestly say that I believe that the venue itself plays a key part in this 'enjoyment'. The sad part is that I for one am not certain that the natural lakes and reservoirs will be filling up again, it's getting v serious.

      @@CatchFishingChannel It is indeed! A heavy feeder rod, cage feeders around 100grams, some sticky groundbait and 2 pints of maggots. All you need to catch barbel. 5 to 8 pound fish pretty regular.

    Fascinating to see so much of the bed exposed. I do a bit of fluff flinging on reservoirs. A few years back, the levels on Grafham were dropped drastically for repair work on the dam. I went for a good walk around. It was interesting to note that a lot of the hot spots were places where there was an old stream bed or feature of some kind that you can't see when the water is at normal levels.

    i remember when they drained roundhay park years ago wich is a deep lake ive been looking for pictures of it when they drained it to get an idea to where the fish could possibly shoal up in winter no one barely fishes it these days so trying to get local knowledge is a bit hard had a couple of hours few months back and caught some fish but in winter i know the shoal up but dont know where.

      Take a marker rod if you have one or a bomb rod with a slider float and stop knot and and have a few hours wondering round and find the deeper areas and holes as they normally hold the fish in winter and it gives you a few starting points to chose from
