Trout season at last!!!!!

3 03 2013

So finally all this waiting as ended and the 2013 trout season as began, at last!, I must say the winter as really been a long 1, well it felt that way. But on that note the winter as provided me with valuable fly tying time, time well spent to say the least, so finally march  is here and its time to pull them brownies out of the Welsh rivers and streams and it gotta be said I love it!.

So out I went today with a good friend Daniel Popp for a spot of fishing hopeing that I could encounter a few brown trout to start the season off on a good note, all my kit was ready a brand new box of freshly tied flys, my mind fresh and thinking about these Welsh bars of gold and I nearly forgot to mention a flask of coffee so I could warm up a little on the bank, it’s still rather cold in the morning’s but it soon warmed up towards the afternoon.

Dan took me to a few of his hot spots in the morning to try to get some results from the off but the fish wasnt having non of it, It was still pretty chilly this morning and there was sunshine forecast for the afternoon so we struggled at first but as soon as it started to warm up on came a  hatch of  large dark olives and it wasnt long before dan took his first fish, And along came another straight after
