Bernie Ratcliffe Fly Fishing: Back on the River

http://brflyfishing.blogspot.com/2013/02/back-on-river.html

Return to the river. GAIA - Game Angling Instructors Association. Phil Ratcliffe Fly Fishing. Monday, 25 February 2013. Back on the River. Back on the River. At last after weeks of floods and high water we were able to shake off the cabin fever and head for the River in mid Wales. The water was still higher than normal for February but had lost all it's colour which had also been preventing us from chasing the Grayling. After what had seemed an eternity away from the rivers this had made up for all the w...

Lumbland: Of mice and rats

http://blog.lumbland.co.uk/2015/05/of-mice-and-rats.html

Friday, May 08, 2015. Of mice and rats. Whitethroats were active in the hawthorn, singing and flitting about. A song thrush perched on high and sang it's little heart out. A swan drifted gracefully by and picked up one of my baits. I wound that one in and whacked it out to deeper water. The tench, which are what I'm trying to catch, are continuing to play hard to get.I've heard of one or two being caught, and more being lost, but they're keeping well away from me. Maybe they'll wake up next week ...Back ...

Lumbland: Moving with the times

http://blog.lumbland.co.uk/2015/03/moving-with-times.html

Thursday, March 26, 2015. Moving with the times. Two rods fished open end feeders filled with crumb and pellet mix with maggots on the size 20 hooks - a single maggot on one, two on the other. These were cast out to a marked spot. The third rod had the in-line feeder, and a small piece of fake corn as bait. This was chucked as far as I could get it and left to its own devices. Rod building of the last month. Should I get the tench rods out? When the light began to fade my hopes of a roach or two rose&#46...

Lumbland: January 2015

http://blog.lumbland.co.uk/2015_01_01_archive.html

Wednesday, January 28, 2015. The website frustration, which I just can't be bothered with trying to sort out right now, and my workload was driving me nuts and finally drove me out in an attempt to beat the oncoming foul weather yesterday. Back on the rod front I've fitted another Alps reel seat to a spinning rod for a customer. I have to confess that these Alps seats are exquisitely machined. Very nice if you like that sort of thing but no more practical than a bog standard Fuji seat. Once more I've bee...

Lumbland: April 2015

http://blog.lumbland.co.uk/2015_04_01_archive.html

Wednesday, April 22, 2015. I could write about another failure of a tench session when fishing carp style with bags of pellets produced another hybrid (which looked very much like the one I caught last Thursday.) but there wouldn't be much to write about apart from hearing and seeing my first whitethroat of the year. Recent builds have included a set of three P-5s and an Axiom in brown, which combined with copper tipped chestnut whippings made for a really nice look. Friday, April 17, 2015. A fresh bait'...

Fly Fishing in 2014: October 2014

http://pitsfordtroutfishers.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Fly Fishing in 2014. Kev Rowley's Fishing responsibilities and exploits around the Rivers and Reservoirs. Tuesday, 21 October 2014. You can't get too much of a good thing and once again the test was fantastic. It forecast two days of continual rain but that never showed and it made for a pleasant trip and a great group. A few more fish later and the evening was pulling in and we started to head back a Buck and Doe Fallow Deer put in an appearance until they got scent of us and made a run for it. Chris Al...
