Had a weekend away there with a few mates and fished a high pressured Lake.

On the first day I tried my usual go to flies such as the silver sparkler and various other attractor patterns with the odd nip and follow but no confident takes. A switch over to smaller, more natural patterns did the business.

These are the pick of the bunch taken on a natural Perch baitfish....






Just goes to show that even with Pike you sometimes need to 'match the hatch'!
