Rainbow Lake

News Report Jan to 12 May 2013

As you can see by the catch Report the lake has had a very slow start in the amounts of fish caught all due to a long long winter, but it now seems to be catching up with good quantities of fish being landed.
The majority coming from the deeper pegs and caught on zigs, but have just started coming out of the shallower pegs on bottom baits and pop-ups. Rainbow Pinapple and Gold have been doing well also Cell pop-ups have been quite good.
On the zigs a little bit of yellow and black foam and set at 2 to 4 feet from the surface is all required, and that seems to work quite well.
During the winter months we have been taking snags out where anglers were having problems. This has met with approval from most anglers. The main work has been done around peg 1 and it has not only improved the fishing, but given a larger amount of water to go at. Other pegs have been sorted, but in smaller amounts.

News Letter from August to Dec 2012
With only a month to go before the biggest fish ends, Tom from Beverley is still the front runner with Gally 2nd.
Most of the fish caught in November were caught using zig rigs out in the deeper water from Peg 10 to around Peg 15 and the opposite Pegs 21 to 23.
Now the weather has taken a turn for the worst we have winterised driving around the lake, and parking is now restricted to the car parks behind Peg 7 and behind Peg 18 also near the caravan for Pegs 21 to 25.
Also during the darker nights we are now locking the gates at 4pm, so if you are going to to be late, please notify me.
We would like to wish all our customers old and new a very Happy Christmas and hope to see you again in the New Year.

Catch Report 3 July to 5 August 2012
The weed removal, several pegs have had the weed removed. The pegs we have addressed are 1, 2, 4, 11, 19, 25. Please dont excpect these pegs to be totally weed free, there will still be the odd patch, but the majority of the weed has gone. The removal of the weed seems to be improving the fishing as one angler has completed a 24hour session 5 fish to 20lb. The weed dragging will be ongoing.

Allthough we have had unreasonable weather, the lake has fished very well, as you can see by the catch report, with more fish coming out than anyother year. And this year 2012 the present average weight is over 15lb, with over 250 fish caught and the average weight of 15lb is very good for our neck of the woods.
Peg 1, 2, 4, 19, 21 are exceptionally weedy causing quite a few problems, but at the moment we are dragging these pegs to reduce the problem. Please bear with us as we are trying to deal with it.
Once again we would like to thank everyone who have visited Rainbow Lake for their conduct and respect for the premisses and facilities provided.

The lake is still fishing well, various methods taking fish, including bottom baits, dog biscuits, chods and zig rigs. If using zigs you may wish to leave them out day and night. Dog biscuits best after tea weather permitting. Chods and rigs presenting baits on the bottom can take fish at anytime.
Tom from Beverley fished a 48hour session in Peg 4 and had 6 fish including 4 x 20lbers all taken off the bottom. Other anglers have enjoyed multiple catches on zigs and mixers.
