ALCATRAZ

One of the most sought after swims on the Main Lake, named after DF’s favourite swim on Elstow 1. Has a fantastic view right across the lake.

Prevailing Wind Easterlies, NE comes straight across the lake at you. Southerly and SW winds make casting at range a lot easier.
Average Depth 22 Feet with shallower margins.

Hot Areas

27/28 RL left of 'The Stink'. 31-33 RL at Big Southerly is a lovely hard area.

Description

One of the most productive open water swims, it has acres of water, which can be a bit daunting for the less experienced anglers who sometimes fish it. To get the best from the swim you need to be able to fish and bait-up effectively in all weather conditions at 27 wraps. We regularly see people become frustrated when the weather conditions deteriorate and they can’t reach the spot they started fishing at the start of the week.

Notable Captures

In recent time this swim has produces one of our biggest stockies, Lashes, Mammut, Lennie's, The Leney, The Upfront Common among many more
