No recent info, but fishing a small buzzer under an indicator will prove to be productive. Not my type of fishing, but people have enjoyed great sucess when all else fails.

I've been twice in the last 5 weeks or so - nothing doing for me on buzzers although others have caught. The last time I went (last week) I had three on a small spider tied with an olive seals fur body and olive dyed partridge hackles - quite long so I think the fly as it passed through the water would have resembled a damsel nymph rather than a drowned insect . These were all targeted fish - they were swirling near the surface and took the fly on a slow retrieve as it sank. Most of the fish I have caught there recently have been on intermediate lines rather than floating. Most of the fish I have seen taken on buzzers (bloodworm and okey dokey) were fished under a bung. I have also had success there at this time of year on a black and green montana.

well just back from bank house arrived early this morning to find the water cloudy probably due to the heavy rain last night,but quite a few fish moving taking nymphs just under the surface by the way they moving tried a washing line with diawl bachs and a small booby on the point had a couple of pulls but nothing stuck so gave in and went onto a black buzzer under a bung and low and behold two fish that unfortunately was that saw a few other fish being caught but dont think anyone was finding it easy. good sport tho and ahd a fun morning
