day of two halves












With the rivers holding no water what so ever and only a few hours spare to fish i visited High Newton one of my favourite waters.

One arrival i was met by flat calm water and quite a few fishermen,it was hard going lots of fish topping but with no ripple it was going to be a hard days fishing

I went through my fly box trying various drys and nympths but to no avail,finally at about 12 oclock the wind picked up i made my way straight towards the ripple luckily i met quite a few anglers heading in the opposite direction wanting to fish with the wind on there backs.

Once on the dam wall it was like a different fishery with the wing blowing into the dam wall the fish started topping.on went a shipmans buzzer and with combination of the ripple and a few fish to cast too i had a hectic couple of hours catching numerous fishting fit rainbows.
