We are now approaching the end of March, the weather has seen some nice days and today George Duff and I spotted flies rising off the water, at the far side of the loch, I then saw a couple of very small flies land on his back, he thought I will put two small black buzzers on his line, and well after ten minute’s he had returned 4, just goes to show that even in really cold weather things do happen, but the best catching method just now still seems to be a blob or a skinny worm, or a cormorant fly, When we last stocked three weeks ago, it was a load of 750g fish ( about 1 1/2lbs ) a nice health size, fighting fit, so catches here just now are genuine acclimatised fish, not fresh stockies hungry for pellets, however it is still cold and this week is to be another cold one this week, lads today were extremely happy, Michael Fairweather and Rod Thaw both excelled as usual, Sandy Band 15 now that’s a good days fishing, Leslie Mitchell and Stewart Penman had a full on fun day with 20 between them, Jock Souter had 8 all returned, the PKDC wellbeing group an a very windy day had 10 all returned, Fred Paddon 6, A Morgan 5, A Cuthbert 3, Colin Hay 7 Paul Hentges 5, C Gibhi 4,H Frankland 6, Mike only out once this week on 6.
Fly Fishing @ the “Goldenloch” for trout with a home tied Fly, is one the nicest ways to relax the body and the brain, time and time again clients say how relaxing and peaceful fishing here is, a day’s fishing is something to look forward too, many people say a bad day fishing is better than a day at work.
