Itchen/Blackwater
Posted: Wed Oct 19, 2011 12:44 pm
There is a stretch where the Itchen meets the Blackwater just by Broadlands fishery in hampshire. The navy ticket I hold allows me to fish this and I am told that it hold dace to over 1lb. I plan to fish it through the winter, although I've not really targetted dace properly before. I did fish it once before, caught a few smaller dace, but a few were followed and lashed at by marauding pike.
What is the best time of year, if there is one, for dace? Are they an all year round species?
