Unfortunately Isisalar of this forum and Steve the keeper at Winkton passed away last year both of whom had some great knowledge of the stretch. I have only fished it twice but its a good sized bit of water. I understand that the majority of fish are caught around the weir, as usual most likely because that is where the majority of anglers fish. The area downstream heading towards the royalty is pretty wide, very open and exposed but there must be some decent lies down there. I'm sure there are some forum members with more knowledge who will share. I fished a heavy 1" tube to try and get a bit of depth, depending on water height.
Tight lines to all!
