We will be fishing both sides of there bothey the same as last year.I did manage 4 brownies for my first day on the river so i was chuffed.I used a partridge and orange.What flies should I be tying for my trip plenty time to prepare and tie up patterns. My smallest hooks are 16 s I hope this is small enough.Thanks for any replies James.

A recent fish from a days guiding for a couple of Americans on the middle Deveron. It's just a shame it wasn't brown but still what a fish!







Those PTNs really do catch everything. I had a salmon on the Don a few days ago on one. I'll post that later.

The fishing is picking up on both rivers again. I have spent more time on the Deveron of late.

Here's some of the better fish that have come across the net.













Two months to go, here's hoping for a fantastic back end!

Season best for me today after a long lean spell.

Awesome fish Derek, he looks mean! You've got me excited for Sunday now.

Def gave the 3wt a workout!  Had a wind knot in my leader I was to lazy to change.  Regretted that the second I lifted into him.

[Liam Stephen]

Nymphing? Could have ended in disaster, the fishing gods were looking out for you!

 

[Derek Mckay]

Ptn on the duo.
Very surprised how well the 3wt recon casts a 4wt small stream line! Saves me having to carry 2 rods in the work motor.

Only stopped for an hour in the passing during work so didn't want to waste time re tying my tippet.  There were only very small fish showing or so I thought.  Think it's lesson learned  as it was nerve wracking when he decided to sit mid stream and refuse to move until serious pressure was applied.

Cracker Derek, and I even think I know where you were 

Hopefully getting back onto the river tonight for an hour or two.
