We had a wee look last night
After what feels like weeks of waiting for a day off, with water worth fishing, last night was a lovely night to be on the water.
Good company too, meant there was plenty laughs
Hatching BWO's seemed to be the focus for a lot of the smaller fish when we arrived at 10pm but by 10.30 there were Egg laying caddis on the water and they were about a size 14. This continued through till about 11.45 when it just died off suddenly.
Here and there were some nice fish chasing the caddis round the river which made them real tricky to target, however one good one stuck himself just on a crease behind a tree. After a serious scrap which belied the size of the fish (i was almost disappointed when i got it to the net
) my camera decided to do its impressionist routine, that it seems to prefer in the dark, however it does make for a spooky, ghost like, evening spectre of a fish..... either that or its just plain crap
Tonight beckons again, so here's hoping the conditions stay the way there just now
