First ever trout ont fly

[harry waudby. 10]

I went down south a few days ago mainly to do abit of shooting but took advantage of the chance at some trout.

I have never fly fished before for trout only really used spinners but when i got this one the fight was so much better you could feel everything on the light tackle even though i think the fish was about 2 pounds 3 or something like that. Anyway thanks for looking and heres some pictures

Without any doubt an evening's fly fishing, on a balmy summers day, catching a brace or two followed by a pint of good real ale is the best it gets anywhere.

And here's to many more, you'll be throwing those spinning rods away.

I remember my first trout on the fly. It was a 1 and a half pound Rainbow I caught using a wet fly fished on the surface as a dry, LOL. I hadn't a clue.
