Not a bad week, thanks to everyone who has commented. The rod ave is still jumping about but overall it was 2.5 for the week. We have had several 4lb +'s coming out and all sizes giving a good strong fight. There have been a couple of good eve rises despite the weather. The Dawl Bach continues to do well and the end of the week saw a lot of fish coming to a stick fly with red tag. All fished about 18" under the surface. The 'Dry Fly Only' anglers have also seen some good fish later on in the eve.

Good hunting

Hi Royston, Bob here, last night on shift tonight, so shall be up in the next couple of days, does Farmoor permit "dapping" with a pole at all? I fancy giving it a go with the Daddy season almost upon us!!
Cheers mate

Bad move, asking, Bob!

Adopt the Nike Principle - Just do it (until some one tells you to stop)!

Worked for Lampeter Exile in the famous 4 fly saga!!!!

Regards,

Are you coming down for The Moscrop by the way?

Hi, Bob, - no decision on Moscrop yet - just back from my 5th (angling) trip south this year, so might have to dip out on the Moscrop. Will let you know.. (although from what I hear from everyone about the quality of the fish at Farmoor this year I might well be tempted!)

Regards,

Hi Bob

Thanks for asking, and YES! you can dap, you may also use real daddies attached to hooks. They will walk on the water and save you from having too.

Looking forward to your next visit. This week started off with a bang, yesterdays rod ave was 5.1

Cheers

5.1..................!!!!!!!!!!! Bl***y hell, I take it you haven’t had the awful weather we are experiencing down in the southeast then Royston?
