Wednesday 13th June

Late last night was a typical classic evening rise, after 5:30pm the trout were rising all over the surface, to a mixture of fly life, although mainly midges, the odd sedge was seen.

Member Gary stanley did very well last night to a Suspender Buzzer!

Today has been a very still day, hardly any wind at all, a slight easterly earlier however this has completely died down now to form a mirror like appearence across the lake, flat calm.
A quite day Angler wise today, however the ones that fished, did well, Member Jim McGinley had 2 fish within a couple hours to suspender buzzers.
Currently a few anglers out on the water, with fish rising all around them!
They appear to be taking midge pupae rather than the adult.
So a small olive or black buzzer fished newzealand style under a klinkhammer or dry, or a team of buzzers with a Booby or bouyant fly on the point to keep the buzzers near the surface, the second mentioned is called the "Washing Line" technique. A very successful method here at Curleys Fishery.

Later on in the evening the midges hatch in their hundreds!! so either insect repellent or a hat with a mesh covering is recommended!
