First outing…
decided as weather reasonable to get rod out for first time this year. It is May after all… Of course, the river still looks like early April, hardly any leaves on trees and not much insect activity. Only managed three for nearly two hours work….back to my shed for another couple of weeks I think.
Hi Andy I fished the bottom stretch on the 2nd with the same result as I only had a few takes. the river requires at least two weeks to warm up to generate some decent fly life. I also fished the GAC stretch lower down the river on Sunday with the same result and very few fish moving. One bonus of the delayed start is the abundance of spring flowers all blooming together on the river bank as shown on a snap taken with my phone on Sunday.
