just interested in what the fish are eating this months on ur local stillwater wondering if the black nats and olives are still out ?

Grayling?

Cheers

trout thanks

That's a wide ranging question can you narrow it down to stillwater or river and which particular waters you are likely to fish?

BK

Pink booby, pearly cormorant booby, orange gem, pink gem, chartreuse gem, tequila gem dennis the menace blob, chocolate brow pellet blob, yellow owl hopper black cdc with legs, daddy snatcher, soldier snatcher, heather fly snatcher, black/pink snatcher, red and black crucher, blac and yellow cruncher, gold holo fiery broon cruncher,claret cruncher, rw sedge, h/e cdc, red db, black db, magenta db, black mirage db, kate mclaren, bloody butcher, butccher, alexandrina, dunkeld, freemans fancy, tb and silver, silver dabbler, silver flashabou db, black hopper, fiery brown half hog, bibio sedgehog, soldier palmer sedgehog, yellow muddler, hot orance muddler, hares ear suspender, golden cormie, original cormie, peach cormie, rutland cat doble, flashabou cat mini, straggly cat mini, candy cat double, big ugly daddy, various other daddies, lurex heather fly, fruplestiltskin booby (own tying)

Buzzers are still working well, as are Daddy long legs fished wet or dry. Fry patterns are coming into their own as well. Personally I am having great success with a small duck fly fished wet or dry, and a size 14 or 16 Black and Peacock Spider with a red butt, fished an inch or two below the surface during the evening rise has proved incredibly effective. Where I am fishing I am finding that the trout seem to take a fly just subsurface much more confidently than 'off the top' and you still get that lovely swirl on the take.

used nearly all of the above today and never had a pull unless you count the one i foul hooked, felt like throwing my fly box in and shouting pick your own, mind you it was blowing a tornado so in reality not the best of days.

Ohhh, hve you also noticed tht, if you fish booby on the surface rolly polying it, your sh1tting yerself becuse theres a massive bow wave following yer fly lmost every cast, i had 14 fish in 2 1/2 hr evening session on menteth once..

There were seriously big, brown sedge coming off my local last week, along with tiny buzzers. I was getting fish on a size 14 small black hopper fished dry and a size 12 parachute/klink type thing. My plan of attack is usually to see what's happening when I get to the water.
