• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. For the trout, small spinners and a box of nymphs cover both approaches. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Failing this one, try Lone Tree Reservoir Number 1, 0.3 miles away. The position on this water is worth confirming on the day.
