meet

sorry lads put post in wrong section. does any members fancy having a meet in a pub convenient to all to discuss flies, fisheries tactics etc. why waste 15mins each fly with a fly that doesent work in the north. bring your fly box along and we can eliminate flies that dont work in northern waters. all those 15mins add up and your paying money to catch fish. i battled on for three years before an england internationall showed me what to do. take a short cut to success and get some help. i must stress that this is aimed at beginners as most competent anglers will know the lures, buzzers nymphs etc needed for northern waters. just trying to help people im not an expert, but can pass on the info that i was told. i can pass on tactics , flies that work at each fishery [not set in stone!] best advice ever given to me was from an old timer who i still fish with, he said keep a diary of where youve been, temperature , wind direction, flies used, what caught, what didnt, date, etc. at the end of the year, look at your list of flies. what caught, what didnt. throw the ones that didnt in the bin! over the years you eliminate all the ones that didnt work, thus saving at least 15 mins per useless fly! makes sense dont you think. you have more chance using the most consistent patterns and your catch rate rises each year. im willing to organise a meet and give a talk if any newcomers are interested. just send a message and illl come up with a venue and date to suit all!
