The weather is certainly a hot topic of conversation at the moment. Summer has vanished, it has got cold, wet and windy. What happened to the good weather we got during the Easter school break. The changeable weather means the fishing tactics change almost every day. There is no consistency in the way the trout are feeding at the moment and at what depth they are at. The water is still cold and it is the middle of May. Where did the summer go. The buzzers are on, then the buzzers are off, and lures are working. What do you try. But then again that is fishing in Scotland, and that is why we are good at it. We can adapt our styles, as long as our waterproofs hold out.
The two reedy bays, high bank and school bay fished well, with the middle of the water not been fished much because of the bad weather. It was mixed flies from buzzers to lures, with the black and green combination doing the most damage. Anglers and clubs that did well were, Stuart Sneddon 6 on buzzers, Townhill club 34 for78lb, Rainbow A.C. 17 for 48lb, ABC & D 24 for 63.11lb. Lets hope for some settled weather so we can all get out and enjoy the fishing, not just survive it. As the evenings stretch out a bit, the evening finishing time is 9.45pm now and that gets later by about 15 minutes every week. We will keep you posted, or you can phone 07527 254811 for up to date information.
