Well done and a very nice mixed catch.

Fished a hill loch last year for brown trout and we where taking perch on the fly put up a good scrap too.

Hi mate,

 

i do quite a lot of trouting and during this catch a few perch. They can be caught on almost any trout lure / fly, cats whiskers, tadpoles, etc etc.

Cheers for the replys all

 

asha I was using buzzers in many different colours/combinations, pernod is right the greedy wee feckers will grab almost anything you throw at them, the perch I caught always took this little fellow:

Caught a lot of perch on buzzers, sometimes it's a real pin in the arse!

[paddy polecat 129]

Aye Ideation I can imagine they could be a real pain, I didnt mind catching a few though makes a change from the usual trout and I was surprised at the fight they put up, good fun on the fly rod.

Nice catch Paddy,have you ever tried eating perch?grilled with some butter,better than trout mate

[northern lad 2,292]

If youre a greedy fecker like me watch out for the spines

[paddy polecat 129]

Cheers Northern lad, cant say i have tried eating perch but a fish is a fish lol, dont think the bailiff at my local catch & release water would take a liking to me knocking one of his perch on the head to see if it tastes good lol

My best fish this season from this lake caught today along with 3 others around 2lb, nice rainbow just under 3lb

 

 

Well camouflaged
