Making the most of it

 

With the weather a bit better trips up to knott have been on the cards,i have been snatching a few hours after work.

The fishery has been in good form with plenty of fish topping and everyone catching lots of fish,on looking at the signing in book it was clear to see that people are catchng on a variety off methods from lures too dry's and austin has been catching on his secret hot spot spider !!!!!!

Myself i have been using small beetle patterns and on weds night there was a trickle of olives hatching off these had the fish on top and mopping up the olives.

If you have not been up lately i suggest you have a trip up as its fishing its head off

 

All shapes and sizes

With the weather set to break i took a few hours off work and headed to my local club water at knottallow tarn the weather conditions were just about perfect with a light warm wind blowing across the tarn.

The fish were on the top and feeding well on getting to the water i could see lots of black gnats on the water,i caught lots of fish on various size gnats.

After finishing work it was straight off to knott for a few hours fishing on  the way past knocker nixon he told me had had been catching well and with fish topping  all over the tarn.

I put a size 16 black beetle on and was straight into fish after a hectic 90 mins i had 7 trout to my name.On  his way past knocker said he had well into double figures.

It looked like they were feeding on black gnats had 1 in the first pool and then walked for a good hour or so and didnt see another fish all day,the wind was strong/cold not the best conditions but with work sunday monday it was the only time i could get on the river.
