Had a toddle up the lake yesterday afternoon with me fly kit.

Just wellies (nee big plodgers) and walked well down the South bank to fish my way back to the car.

Finished up with nine brownies (six skinnies and three good-uns) all nee mair than 15 yards out on an inter. line and small balck flies with red or flourescent tags.

There were only five or six members on and one Day Ticket lad.

Everyone had fish: one member had 12 on worm and the Day Ticket lad had 6 on the fly and he was wearing trainers(so deep plodging isn't necessary)

It really is fishing its plums off

Tight lines,

Drof

Aye Lads,

It does seem a bit unfair BUT 'Members' fishing the worm (barbless), can catch and release as many as they like until the second fish is killed - then quits.

Day Ticket wormers cannot catch and release so, ('strictly speaking') it's two fish then home.

Day ticket fly anglers, again 'barbless' can catch and release as many as they like the same as members.

Cheors,

Drof.

what about if fish is under size,is there a limit what size to keep,

[drof46]

what about if fish is under size,is there a limit what size to keep,

10 inches from the tip of the nose to the fork of the tail.

Tell you what though as there's nee limit on how big a worming hook can be (although it can't be LESS than size 10), if you use a large-ish, de-barbed hook, it's more difficult for the fish to get it to the back of the throat. So if you give it plenty of slack as it approaches the net there's a good chance that it will 'get off'.

For fly fishing, the MAXIMUM hook size is 10.

Cheors,

Drof.
