Hi everyone

iv just got into fly fishing properly now.
used to go with my dad when i was younger (24 now)
but now iv really got into it.

last bank holiday monday me and my dad after weeks of practising my cast, went to a lake to show me in more depth.

well we stayed there for 6 hours and i had a great time and caught these two trout with a Dry fly (one my dad made to look like a daddy longlegs)

well to say the least i have fallen in love with the sport and with my house only across the field from the river dee outside of Llangollen.. as soon as my permit is sorted to the right club who owns the water i can confidently say i will be there alot

Jack

P.S the fish was delish !

hi jack
welcome to the forum, and well done with the trout

Hi Jack, welcome to the Forum.


Hope you get your permit sorted quickly, remember the Dee is famous for her grayling and nowhere better than Llangollen for the lady of the stream.

ps. They are tasty too, better after a few hard frosts, although I never take more than a couple per season.

Hi Jack

Welcome to the Forum. Plenty of help on here. Glad to see you had a good day. We are lucky enough to live in an area with loads of great Trout fishing with great Rivers and lakes. The Welsh Dee grayling are awsome.
That looks a great Sink for cleaning your trout maybe i`ll get the wife one of them

Hi

allanw - it is a great sink.. iv had everything in there from rabbit, fish, pheasant, duck, goose etc the missus isnt keen on cleaning them but wow is she good a cooking them

any one know of who owns the river a Glyndyfrdwy ? i heard is midland fly fishers ? cant seem to find any info

Never fished that stretch myself but I think its either Midland or Mold FlyFishers and possibly Corwen may have a small stretch

many thanks for all the help.

Bangor on Dee / Bryn Y Pys mate, it can be a bit full of stockies down here and the Big Grayling are less frequent but I`ve still had 8 over 2 1/2 lb best went 3lb 4oz. the secret is to fish the bits other people walk past because its overgrown
