I though it'd be Kev's loops in the viewfinder Mike.

Is that Windyknot Mike in the Orange jacket?.

Kev wasn't using one of my SLX lines :z4

Orange jacket is Scott Sim "nailchapper" and Michael "windyknot" has his back to us in the bottom photo :wink

Cheers

Kev wasn't using one of my SLX lines   :shock. He's possibly sick to death of throwing one after all his practicing.


Michael "windyknot" has his back to us in the bottom photo             At least you got his good side!  :X2

Oops ...... forgot to post a report :oops although to be honest, there wasn't much to report last week :z4

Black Damsels, Bibio, Black Spider, Kate McLaren, Hare's Ear Nymph and Pearly Pennell were probably the most productive flies last week, it felt a bit like old time Fords ...... you could offer the fish any colour of fly that you liked - as long as it was black!

The Haddo Broons did not appear to like the snow and cold winter-like conditions ..... and neither did the fishers, as it is not much fun sitting in a boat in weather like that, especially after such a great warm spell :z6

The weekend saw things perking up a bit though, Scott Sim enjoyed a good session tempting 18 fish up to 2.5 lb and Kenny Hall netted 10 up to 2 lb.

Best wishes
Mike
