I’m planning my first ever visit to the Ythan this friday.
My nephews being dragged off the playstation and will be spinning, with me on the fly.
Hoping for a little advice from anyone familiar with it.
So far the plan is from the north bank but not sure where’s best.
From what I can see on the website the recommended traditional start time from the bank is at actual high tide, is that correct?
Just had the thought in my mind that you would be better to fish during the incoming tide but I’m sure there’s a logical reason.
My thought was to use a 9ft #5, but could go 9 1/2 #6 /7 or 11’ #6/7 and to grab a few tasmanian devils and toby type lures from somers for my nephew and a few recommended flies.
Any recommendations from you experienced chaps on flies & tactics would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Stevie
