Colder as promised...

Dry flies catching fish, trout gorging before the colder winter months set it....

The temperature has dropped slightly, the air temperature that is, the water has remained fairly consistent.
With a hint of frost on the surrounding folleage earlier on...

Trout have been coming out to various patterns recently, but the two flies that stand out are..
  • Black Tadpole
  • Black & Green fritz
Catching more fish than any other patterns currently, dont forget to have a few of these in your box!

Floating lines being used to great success, However as the temperature cools, its recommended to have a couple of sinking lines within your fishing tackle for the day, as Curleys is a deep reservoir and during the winter months you want to be down deep.

But for now! the fish are remaining near the surface, no deeper than 5-6ft at the height of the day, with the odd hatch keeping them within the top few feet of water. Well presented daddys catching a few fish yesterday....



Tightlines,
