As the evenings are now lasting longer and the sport is lasting longer, us fisherman need to start dusting off the cob webs and head down to the river to separate the men from the boys.
With the hot weather and fresh showers we have had lately in the Eden water system, the hatches have been more often and more dense. Some great hatches of BWO and mayfly have seen trout roll, splash and thrash which is always great to see.
Paul Procter's article in this months T+S is certainly worth a read as its based on the Eden.
You may even recognise this young man...................
What time do the main hatches start in the evening?
ReplyDeleteRichard,
ReplyDeleteAs July rolls on, sometimes you need to be starting on the water after 8pm. I've lost track of the amount of times I've crossed paths with anglers leaving early, complaining about a dearth of fish - will they ever learn? Young Cal obviously has this sorted, but it's amazing how many anglers get cold feet as the shadows begin to lengthen.....I'll be out there myself tomorrow night, fingers crossed!
