No catch

A big strong hen fish of 93cm on the PATSY FLY.

Saturday a cock fish of 90cm (also pictured below).

For those interested in the fly used the last picture is Patsy’ showing her usual modesty when on hearing news one of her flies had caught another Salmon ….

An Extremely solid 90cm cock fish. Estimated to weigh 17l-18lb Caught in a small tube on a 7wt fly rod. The fish was in control the majority of the time!

Nice day out but no fish

2’1 on the gauge today with a nice tinge of colour.It was quite difficult casting heavy tungsten tips with the strong downstream breeze, but I wanted to fish the top catches, which I haven’t fished for a while, so spent the morning on both sets of boards on the Gromain and Radnor banks, covering Bachawy. The inevitable happened late morning and I had an unplanned swim. So I’m going to fail my audition as a trapeze artiste.
Early afternoon I had a solid take to the flyingC that I switched to in the Spring Pool but after a bout of head shaking it didn’t stick to the crushed barb hook. A probable salmon but after hooking a 6lb + Chub on a salmon fly a couple of days ago, and initially thinking it was a kelt, I couldn’t be sure.
The effects of my earlier dip set in by 4.30 and I was glad to get to a warm car.
A pleasant day nonetheless.
