Hi All, Does anybody know if you need a boat fishing licence to fish from a kayak in Portugal or if you are covered by the shore licence also I have heard that Kayak's in Portugal need to be licenced and have third party insurance but like most things Portuguese it's all abit vague? Any info most appreciated. Cheers, Jason

Chuby, at Kyrenia you will find mullet in and around the harbour, get them feeding on bread and fling a fly that looks like breadflake at them, it's also worth making up some flies that look like maggots as they also feed on sandfly maggots dropping off floating seaweed. Also sewerage outlets are topmarks too for mullet!

I'm all for catch and release, however probably 75% of trout fisherman don't have a clue how to play and handle a fish that is to be released. Watched some guy today keep a 4lb brownie out the water for 3 minutes before releasing it to its slow death at the botton of the lake.

Nice one Chuby, lets have a picture then! have to say i'm very disapointed with frensham fishery tatty fish, tatty pools.

Dave, think you will struggle to get a butt section to match the rod characteristics or repaired as all they will do is fit an internal spiggot. Maybe you could make it in to a dustlight 3.5 WT to match your new Plueger reel!!!!

Also the Plueger was "best in test" in Trout and Salmon earlier this year. JayP

Dave, have a 3" plueger for stream, small river fishing and for the price can't be beaten. http://www.nimpopo.co.uk is the cheapest place on the planet to buy. i paid £41 for mine!. JayP

Buying a good coat will be your starting point + a hat + gloves + thermals! Regards JayP

Argyll, think you could be right, cheap nasty flies for the stewpond androids and quality flies for the fish. Regards JayP

Ok, so being fairly new to fly fishing and not being enough hours in the day I have been buying my flies online IE Selectafly, Fulling Mills, Timeflies etc rather than tying my own. On Saturday I went in to the local Orvis shop and I have to say the quality of flies was amazing compared to what I’ve been buying on the net, however they were between 40 and 80 pence more expensive per fly. So my question is will I catch more with the Orvis flies rather than tho net bought ones I’ve been using? Regards to you all. JayP

Orvis rocky mountain £50 and you can turn the clicker off!

B@!!@x, Cabelas is the store i want to buy from!!!!!!

Hi Roland, don't know how Hazelcopse is fishing but if you go please post a report. Tightlines JayP

Has any one bought fly gear online from America? have seen a fishpond pack 50% cheaper in America but will import duty etc make it uneconomical? Regards to you all JayP

Fishtec are doing clearance on airflo rods for £39.99 plus matching airflo line for a tenner. Personaly i think an 8.6 ft 4/5 WT would be your ideal rod and check out orvis rocky mountain reels for quality and price.. Actually maybe go for an orvis outfit from Glasgow Angling. Good Luck

Snatcher, yes it is a trout, the fact that it came from the shopping trolley infested sespit that is the river mole is the bit i'm questioning. JayP

OOOOPPS. forgot the link "schoolboy error" http://www.leatherheadangling.co.uk/news/index.php

Stumbled across this on the net and not convinced of the autenticity. If i'm wrong all i can say is stunning! check the link out for yourselves. Regards JayP

Paul, whats the Czech Nymph/ North Country Spiders vid like? informative? JayP

Paul, just checked my E-Mail and yes two are out of stock but should be despatched within 7 days. JayP

Sorry, but when i say i've ordered them all i mean one of each not all the stock. However maybe i should buy them all to sell on EBAY!!!!

if anyones interested www.play.com are doing the essential skills dvds for £17.99 delivered to the door. The cheapest i had seen them at was £22.95 + £1.95 postage, so a bargain to be had and yes i've ordered them all. Regards JayP

Starvinmarvin, thanks for the info, if you walk over the bridge to the Maltings check out the trout just upstream. Chubby the following links should help. http://www.meonsprings.com/html/index.html http://www.fishcountryleisure.com/Welcome.htm Regards JayP

Bri, thanks for the info, do you have any contact details for the Whitewater fly fishing club? also thought this looked interesting and not to far away. http://www.meonsprings.com/html/index.html Regards JayP

Just moved to Farnham, Surrey and wondered what the fishing on the River Wey is like on the north and south branches and up to Eashing Mill just outside Godalming, does anyone fly fish it regularly? is it club water? also what other fisheries are there near by. Regards JayP
