going to pinbraid fishery on fri pm for a 4 hr evening session

first serious go at fly fishing had a few chucks last year in vain atempt for bass ( mainly a sea angler)

managed an hour at rothymuchus aviemore at my brothers stag do but only hooked a shrub the grass and my backside

more time will be spent on tuition with a skilled trout angler

have been tying some flies after attending the last two sessions of local fly tying club (typical i always time these things wrong)

have some presentable bibios, red palmers, black pennels, black zulus and some other wierd looking experiments

 

very exited and will post a report on saturday will take camera just in case. :)

god that casting is gonna take a while to master

great wee fishery my m8 had 5 fish 1 brownie and 4 rainbow for a total of 12lb

 

i got my line wet but no pulls

 

at the bottom of a steep learning curve

 

they were feeding on caddis and quite picky my m8 said

 

but there were some clonkers of fish out there

 

all my flys i have tied are on the biggish side so will have to down size a bit

 

from 8-10's to 14-16's eek will need a magnifying glass

 

but will peresevere
