Thanks for sharing mate, Can't wait for the Grayling either......

I Like the caddis bug in particular!!!

But with 24 turns of lead as an underbody.... you gonna catch them, or knock them out with them?

Where will you be frequenting this winter?

I have the bargain £10 for 6months ticket for the Irthing, @ Brampton.... First Season on here so look forward to those cold mornings......

Also, got a few trips in mind for the Tweed & Teviot though....
