Fishing has been spot on the last few weeks plenty of fish getting caught without it being to easy or to hard. Fish size has be quite unreal with so many BIG fish landed with cracking Rainbows Tigers and Browns all getting landed.   Spring has finally arrived to with lots of fly life now starting to show all over the lakes. Best flies this week have been Daddys Buzzers and Nymphs

Looks like winter is on its way, and with this we will start to see the browns crashing around the margins and islands after the shoals of roach and perch.
