Friday 15th June Report
A difficult day weather wise, strong winds and heavy rain at certain points during the day.
However plenty of fish caught and the top rod was Member Gary Stanley with 6 trout to his net, one to a red buzzer and the others to the F-fly. Member Gary Stanley also managed 8 fish the previous day to buzzers, good angling!
Although the weather took a turn for the worse, the fish were still feeding very close to the surface!
Saturday 16th June
Although the forecast isn't too exciting, it seems most of rain fall happened over night.
A very light mist/rain today, although its still quite mild and theres virtually no wind, a very slight easterly with 5-7mph gusts.
Although 90% of fish over the last week have been caught to dries, it seems today they have gone a little deeper, and as Gary Stanley showed yesterday, a team of buzzers can work very well in these conditions.
With damn conditions over night and continous mild weather, its prime hatching conditions for midges!
The follow videos are well worth a watch and are very interesting, i have viewed these videos and tied a few patterns based on the clips below:
Emerging Chronomids
Wriggling Bloodworms
Under a microscope
A good tactic is when approaching a water is too have a good look around, to see whats hatching, and which is more common, imitating certain chronomidae can be quite easy to do, as they start to emerge from their pupae shell, suspender buzzers imitate this stage. Deeper down, standard buzzers etc. Finding the correct shade and size is important and you can simply do this by examining the body of water around your fishing peg.

UPDATE:
The odd light rain shower, over clouded, 5-6mph NE wind, no where near as bad as predicted.
