Title: Haddo Trout Fishery ( to May 24th )
Post by: Mike Barrio on 24/05/2011 at 22:27

Hi folks :cool:

A quieter week at Haddo as I had a couple of days off. CDCs, Klinks, Spiders, Snatchers, Buzzers, Crunchers, Diawl Bachs, Green Pea, Damsels and white Fritz have caught a few fish :wink

Gordon Mackay tempted 25 fish up to 4 lb for his session, Denny Mackay had 20 up to 3 lb, David Moir 10 up to 2 lb, Scott Hartley 8 up to 4 lb, Ryan Law 8 up to 4 lb, Robbie Campbell 7 up to 5 lb and Brian Brand netted 7 up to 2 lb.

Best wishes
Mike

Mike, what about your personal catch last week?  So many fish I couldn't count them so that must be at least 30, I know I can count to 30.
All on dries.

Cheers

Hi Ben :z16

Hmmm ...... I don't usually include myself in the reports :z4

Let's just say that Ben Dixon and Mike enjoyed some great dry fly sport with Klinks and F-Flies :wink

Best wishes

Had a good relaxing day yesterday , and thanks for the help getting in and out of the boat Mike .

Caught a few - lost a few , but now I know the set up I will improve on that score next time .

What I like about the boats is that they are a mobile fishing platform for sitting , standing , and casting from .

I will be back  , and if you find a pair of glasses let me know please although not sure where I lost them . ( Always losing them )

Cheers   ,  Pete

Hi Ewan :z16

I estimated Matt's Broon at 6 lb, but it may possibly have been nearer 7 .... nice fish :cool:

Cheers

Yep - looks closer to 7lb in the photo - That must be a new record for Haddo?  Not a bad weight gain since you put them in last year eh?
