Had a wonderful day on the upper Dee today. Bit chilly in the morning but warm enough by lunch to bring out enough flies to raise the fish up. Biggest came in at 3.5lb had others at 2lb, 1.5, 1.0, and plenty of small ones to be seen. Saw a few salmon too which is always a pleasure.

Very nice catch! The Dee seems to be fishing really well at present. Is the same fish in both pics? Did you weigh them all?

Hi Nick, the fish In the net was the biggest of the day, the one i'm holding was getting on for 2lb. It's guesstimating of course, I don't even have a pair of scales, but 35yrs of fishing and taking the odd rainbow at a fishery where you have to weigh in will calibrate your arms for you.

Lovely ladies!
well done.
The one in your hand actually looks bigger than the one in the net!
Shows how the camera does sometimes lie!
