The early season buzzer hatch at Menteith seems to get bigger each year. This was yesterday morning at 09.00...

Two different species - the majority were a tiny scrotter about size 32, but the other is a decent 12-ey 14-ey sized fly. Unfortunately the bulk of the hatch had already happened by the time we got out at 09.30, and the weather (bright and breezy) didn't help, so not much nymph or dry action - did manage one and missed another on a black Klink. No doubt been a different story on other days.
