There isn't a "wrong bit of the river" on the Don or the Deveron in my experience Rob, you just have to spend most of your time walking and watching

Cheers

Fantastic stuff Scott

Mixed results today but I was in good company.  I saw a fish that I hooked and lost yesterday again, it's a PB for sure! Unfortunately I put him down today and never saw him the rest of the day .   

I noted a few more very good fish so will be back for them tomorrow.

I had good success on the dries during a mixed hatch. The usual 10-12" fish were keen, I also had several at around 2lb, a 2.5lber and a 3.25lber so another trophy!

Loving the Epic 580 as well so cheers Sandy!

Rob start fishing proper dries. A ginked up Zoo Cougar doesn't count btw!! 

[Mike Barrio]

Great stuff Liam

It was a lot of fun Dude, had a great afternoon

Especially now the water is clearing.



LDO's again accounting for the fish despite a decent March Brown hatch.



Some crackers in amongst them including two TF's

Awesome fishing guys well done all and lots of great photos as usual.  I love having a look in to see the reports and some of the patterns that are working    I've a dormant membership of the ADAA so you'd never know maybe I will see some of you on the riverbanks again in the not 2 distant future.

[Liam Stephen]

Would be great to fish with you again Noel!

I walk, I watch, I creep about, and I am not seeing much.

Last year I was seeing big fish on every trip in the same area. There were three bits where I could almost guarantee seeing (not catching) fish of 4-5lbs. They just have not been in those lies so far.

It could be due to the shifting in the river bed. What was once a great lie may be crap now. And vice versa...... The trout will still be around that location I'd imagine you'll just have to find them!

i've really enjoyed finding trout in some new spots this season.


Was out today, a few up to 2lb despite a nasty downstream gusty wind. And hail. We had some hail. FIsh still happily coming to a size 18 emerger pattern, and not seeming too fussed about snaffling MBs.

Anybody who was at the river bank today needs their head looked at…. It was baltic !
I had a good excuse, I wanted to try a custom dubbing blend put together by Andrew Ellis

There was a reasonable hatch of olives but I only spotted three  fish all afternoon
Fortunately one of them was a steady feeder and liked the look of my fly.
Another plump trout heading towards the 5lb mark. 
I’m pretty sure I’ve caught him before Away to look through my big fish pics.




and thanks again Andrew I appreciate your help with the blend. Looks great and the fish liked it too
