Weekend prospects

Weather this morning has been a little less than desirable, although the rain has stopped as the forecasters promised. Clear skies on the horizon, approaching at a steady rate. Wind is still a little (on and off) breezy but nothing to be concerned about. A few anglers out on the water so will keep blog viewers updated on their progress, as the day goes on.

The weather is looking very promising for sunday, with clear skies and even some sun!!


Highs of four degrees above, wind is going to disperse over night, leaving a very enjoyable day to be had fly fishing. Although remaining a slight westerly wind, through out the day, creating that perfect ripple that us trout anglers pray for.
The damp weather followed by sunny conditions tends to bring out the typical midge hatches, although it may still be a little cold for them. Smaller fish species are still on the trouts diet at curleys, some showing themselves early morning before the anglers hit the water.

To get your angling taste buds tingling, take a look at this video.

Recent catches:

Mr Matthew Johnson ended his four hour ticket landing 3 fish, one nice rainbow (see photo below)

Mr Paul Johnson with a excellent catch rate of 6 fish to his net, again another nice rainbow of around 4-5lbs was had.

- will update as anglers return with their catch rates -

Tightlines,
