Post by: Mike Barrio on 04/08/2008 at 23:54

Hi folks :cool:

Dry flies, emergers, spiders, Diawl Bachs and buzzers have been on the menu at Haddo this week, the F-Fly proving a popular choice :wink

Jay Scott enjoyed his first session with a new Barrio 5wt fly rod, tempting 26 fish up to 15 lb on a wee Pale Caddis Spider pattern. Michael MacPherson netted 20 fish up to 3 lb on Hoppers & Diawl Bachs, Dave Batty 18 up to 12 lb on damsels, Scott Jonstone 18 up to 6 lb on dries & buzzers, Brian Liebenberg 17 up to 4 lb on various lures, Bob Caird 13 up to 2½ lb on F-Fly, Ronnie Birnie 11 up to 2½ lb on F-Fly, Frank Thrall 11 up to 2½ lb on Black & Peacock Spider and John Buchan caught 10 nice fish up to 10 lb on dries and buzzers.
