Red letter day

[brownsville]

Thanks to the encouragement, advice, freebies, and one-to-one instruction from members on here, I managed to catch the very first, and three more fish, on my own tyings, at Barrow Tanks opening day today.

Cheers chaps, you know who you are.

Well done Mike I bet you are chuffed

[STEWART01]

Well done Mike sounds like you had some fun .

[stuartpengs]

Nice one Mike! That's a big confidence hurdle to get over, no stopping you now. Long may it continue.

Hearty congratulations Mike, what patterns did the damage for you ?

[Eddie O'Neill]

Well done, superb feeling. Keep the first fly you caught on, frame it, sit back and admire

Mike, having seen your buzzers and stuff, I thought you'd been tying for years. Well done.

[brownsville]

Thanks chaps, unfortunately I gave away one, and lost the other two, but I took a pic after I'd tied the first one.

On a cold and windy day the fish were down deep so I had to resort to this, size 12.




No BD, thanks anyway, only since October.

The tail's a bit heavy

Nice work, Heron. Any of them big overwintered browns showing?
