DreamLake 1, West Bar

Topography
Where do I start with this swim. Looks to have everything in front of you and does! Bar 4-5 feet depth, gully 8 feet depth gravel, silt and clay with 7-8 feet depth of water. The distances range from the bar at 85yds, the gully at 75yds and areas of silt and gravel all over the shop. You choose!

Hotspots/Distance/Direction
I would put at least 1 rod (probably 2) in the silt gully. With the other rod I would find a different spot approx 40yds out, either a gravel, silt or clay area and bait up. The reason for this is the fish are moving into and out of the corner at this distance. Try to ambush them!

Tips/Observations
Gives you lots to think about… a challenge. Watch for fish moving and better still look for bubblers as these are definitely feeding fish. Don't forget to bait up the gully.
