Hi all,
Been on hols so missed a few weeks with the returns.
Looks like I have also been missing some good fishing.
Over the last 3 weeks the rod average has been about 3 and nil returns less than a quarter of those fishing so things are looking up. Fishing times are still varied with no particular time of day being better than another, but as the days lengthen the fishing should shift to early mornings and late evenings.
Successful flies vary a lot, but mostly buzzer imitations like spiders, shipmans and suspenders. The old favourite beetle has been doing well. Black gnats should still be around but the Hawthorns should be just about finished. Unfortunately we don't get many olives, but again these should be about over. There also seeems to be a lot of daddies, so try a hopper, but watch out for smash takes.
We have blocked off the causeway to try to keep the water level up in the big pond as we still have a leak in the dam and with some decent weather forecast this seemed the best plan. There are plenty of fish in both sides.
