Hi folks

Dry flies, Spiders, Corixa, Diawl Bachs, Buzzers, Bloodworm, Damsels, Cats and small white nymphs have been on the menu at Haddo this week

Fred McAlley tempted 22 fish up to 6 lb for his session, Neil Garden had 19 up to 7 lb, Ross Sangster 17 up to 6 lb, Frank Sangster 16 including two nice trout of approx 14 lb, Richard Hambly 16 up to 9½ lb, Brian Liebenberg 15 up to 12 lb, Malcom Mead 12 up to 3 lb, Norrie Hart 11 up to 10 lb, Pete Lay 11 up to 4½ lb, Bob Clayton 10 up to 5 lb, Steven Kidd 10 up to 4 lb, Graham Chiverton 8 up to 12½ lb, Ian Dawson 8 up to 10 lb and Robin Smith netted 8 fish up to 10 lb.

The loch was frozen all day today (Monday) and unless things warm up a bit tonight, I would think it is likely to remain frozen again tomorrow

Best wishes

That was a surprise .... it must have been very mild indeed last night

There was no ice whatsoever this morning and the loch fished well. Kenny made an interesting observation after having a rather good session today, there was quite a lot of mist hanging over the water at various times, yet the fish were keen to take ..... but when this happens on a river, the fishing is usually dour?

Best wishes
