Day of the Black Gnats

The water temp has cooled down from the last few days, first thing this morning the top foot of water was reading at 7-8degrees, now its reading nearer ten. With the water warming up that little bit, is starting to bring on quite a few hatches.

Few fish caught, mainly to suspender buzzers, both black and olive. Within the top foot of water. A couple of fish caught to bloodworm patterns fished to roughly 6ft.

Plenty of Small black Gnat out in numbers today. Just in the last 30minutes the fish have started to switch on to these insects. Near Heron bay (see water map) there must be dozens on the surface being slurped down by hungry bows.

Pictured above are various immitations.

Temperature touching 10 degrees still so its looks promising for the anglers out on the water for a good rise or two over the day.

Tightlines, Nath.
