Default Alderneuk report

Settled cooler weather with steady winds has made for good sport on or near the surface with, cdc's daddies and hoppers all scoring on the top, and diawl bach's, pheasant tails and crunchers in the top 3 ft all working, stalking fish in the clear water has seen some lovely fish, like the 3lb+ brown in the pic, stalked 5ft from the edge on a big dry by Scott, he also nailed a 5lb+ bow on a copper buzzer along with 3 others all on stalking tactics.

lot's of lovely conditioned residents making an appearance like this 3lb+ by Danny,

lure guys scoring to with blobs, cats whiskers and dancers all taking fish, evening's scoring equally with morning's this week. Weird goings on on Sat, night, when a cracking rise on saw all on dries, but unable to keep them in the water as bats kept nailing them of the surface!! After 3 bats in 10 min's landed, all caught on the back leg, we called it a night, biazzare, anyone else experianced this? Cheers all, Wullie and Wilma.

This is fishing for you, after struggling at harelaw yesterday, all down to me,
I called in to Alderneuk for a cup of tea and a blether, thats me at my best,
When Wilma said have a cast with this rod, i told her to put on a Sedge,
i only had two casts and bang a cracker of a Rainbow with a tail like a shovel,
4.5 lbs of fighting fury, this Fish took me right down to the backing,
And was returned to fight another day.

Was fishing a large dry daddy last night with an orange body.....had 4-5 rises from the same fish teasing me in the shallows and then bang it took the fly and screamed off. Amazing fight!!

Fish were rising all over last night with a very light breeze.

Country Joe has seemed to of dried out from his bath at hare law too!
