Just got home from fishing harelaw early session

We arrived about 3am and headed out in the boat just as it was getting light, we decided to work our way down the left bank from gull island down to the cabin, we were into fish from the first cast.
It wasn't until it got light that the fish started to rise and boy did they rise, there were fish rising all over the dam for as far as i could see so we just kept moving up and down and in and out this shore with constant action.
We then decided to follow the wind and try the other side round to the right where we found some bigger fish in the 3-4lb range that had been in for a while judging by the condition of them.
All in all a great night constant action with fish following to the boat and slashing at the flies which resulted in us netting about 12 fish each and losing at least double that
