Just spent a a couple of very enjoyable days at the CLA Game fair. Most of the weekend was taken up with helping out on the Junior casting clinic.

One of the things that many fly anglers puzzle about is what flies to use; whether it is on the River Usk, River Monnow or any other river; or, for that matter, which flies are working at a certain lake. So I have decided to focus this months blog page on exactly that subject.

Fished on the LRA today. The wind was cold and easterly, not good for fishing even worse for dry fly early season. I fished heavy nymphs for a while. Which resulted in a couple or three Grayling. Here is one of them.

Well with the 2008 trout fishing season well and truly under way you may be thinking that its a bit late for the first entry in this months blog and you would be right. It all started or should I say finished

While the trout season is approaching the weather has not really been that conducive to fly fishing for any species.
