aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 at this time of the year look for rises. these are small splashes or dimplles on the surface of the river caused by trout and grayling coming up to intercept a fly wich has got caught in the surface film. if your not sure what fly they are taking then try an 'f' fly or an adams. these are general flys which cover loads of differnet flys. if you have caught one of the flys they are rising to then find a fly in your box wich matches that fly the most. if there not rising then try one or two of the following nymphs: goldhead hares ear, sawyers killer bug, pink shrimp, partridge and orange, pheasent tail nymph, diawl bach. all in size 14 or 16. hopw this hepls Aaron Quote Link to post
