Back to the topic in hand (a hazel nut in every bite  :z4) and in answer to the question anything risin?  Yup olives on the go today (on a wee river near here) and troots respondin.  Sadly it was late afternoon before i got over there and the fecking rain showers were very very heavy which killed the sport very quickly, however managed one wee fish (pic to follow soon).

Glad to be off the mark and roll on next week as i've a couple of days off.

Here's hoping it all stays settled and the flies (and troots) respond in earnest.  Canne wait.

Ben have you got a thermometer?? That's something you Salmon boys( :z4) usually carry isn't it? I'm just thinking of all the snow you've had up there (see Lecht are saying all runs are still open) it's gettign in Don and may lower water temp enough to put off the hatches. Would be interested to see what it is at the moment and if you are by the river and see a hatch you could take temp then too  :z18 Cheers;will get you a beer when we're up!

Hi Richard,

Just back from  a trip up north so just picked this up.  Will be out tomorrow so will get a temp reading for you.  Came back over the Lecht today and not a lot of snow, far less than a week ago.

Cheers

Must be something happening on the bigger water by now?  :z8

Fish rising steadily on some smaller waters with decent hatches o LDO's and a fair smattering of MB's.

Hatches on the Spey over the last few days, mainly LDO's, March Browns and stoneflies. The rises havent lasted long, caught a couple yesterday.

Good to hear, Rod Benders should be putting in an appearance soon, if not already.

Quite an astonishing hatch of March Browns on the Ness (for a brief 5 minutes) today whilst I was out walking the banks at lunchtime.

Didn't see a single trout rise  :roll
