Hi folks :cool:

Don't you just love the Autumn ....... the water temps are falling rapidly at the loch ( about 8-9 degrees today ) and the smaller tactics of F-Flies, dries in the size 16 to 22 region,  hareslugs, PTNs, spiders etc are still outfishing lures by miles.

They don't appear to want a fly high & dry, but anything sitting in the surface or in the top 6 inches is the way to go.

It won't be long before you start to read comments about rainbows taking leaves :z4 They are certainly following the leaves around, but if you turn a recently fallen leaf over ...... you'll maybe see why :wink

Great fun to watch :z3
Best wishes
Mike

Have had several hard frosts out by me, -3 yesterday morning, so I think a trip for the grayling wont be too far away :)

Autumn is a special time indeed :)

Now that I can believe..... but maybe the insulation will help.
Besides, in the kitchen, you can always leave the fridge door open to be warm  :wink :z4
