Goldenloch april 22/ 2013 week 14
Its been another funny week at the Goldenloch, I am sure other fisheries will agree with me when I say that sometimes there are absolutely no reasons why the fish just switch off, Saturday morning saw three anglers out fishing, as well as 10 kids from Perth Grammar School, they were learning to fly fish as a sport and its well done to John Hood for offering up his time to teach them, the three anglers were having a really good time with each getting plenty offers and catching fish, about 12 noon something happened and the fishing just went right off, the day before it was really cold in the morning and anglers were having to work hard to find the fish, yet some were getting more than there fair share of good luck, Hamish Anderson, Dundee caught and returned 5 all caught using an ace of spades with one on a green buzzer, Bob Bruce and Andy Fraser had a very pleasant days sport with their usual BBQ lunch in the middle Bob catching fish with Andy leading the way as usual both lads always replacing everything, but it was a cold afternoon which makes it just a little unpleasant, Yesterday, Sunday, was again another tough day however the fish that were caught were very good, Alex Burns, Kirkcaldy in his bag of three and returned a few had one at 8.5lbs he was fishing with his pal who didn’t catch anything, the same happened with Bill Thomson and Brian Kettles they were using buzzers all day, and it did get really windy towards the end, Bill had 8 all returned and Brian using the same flies had 0, its not been a great start to this season but catches generally, on the right day are good, what is needed is some sun and heat, we need the water to warm up to make the fishing much more enjoyable I am sure there must be some warmer weather just round the corner we just need to get there, its not really much fun or pleasure when you come in after being out fishing and not being able to open your hands up because you fingers are frozen, don’t worry soon it will be all warm and the air full of flies. Roll on the summer
