Loynton Trout Fisheries

Plenty of fish moving most days currently. They seem largely focused on small stuff, buzzers and pin fry. Still numbers of mayfly showing PM while damsel nymphs are on their march to bank-side reed beds where trout lie in wait!

A lovely fish from Loynton Trout Fisheries🙂

More fun to nymphs and dry flies on the lakes this week!🙂

It's been a good weekend at Loynton Trout Fisheries. Simon returns a nice 3lb blue he caught on his 1st day fly fishing. Well done to everyone, great to meet you all!🙂

We still get asked what blue trout are. well this one is a fairly extreme example. Absolutely stunning!
A nymphing approach has been most productive recently with small black buzzers, hares ear and mayfly nymphs producing consistently. Mid afternoon seems to be favoured by the few mayfly we've seen hatch off the lakes so far. A dry on the dropper and nymph as point fly is not a bad idea when warmer conditions arrive next week (allegedly).😉

Some nice dry fly and nymph fishing at the moment. Buzzers in black and red, black dries on top. There are masses of hawthorn fly this year!🙂

Late March has seen lots of bent rods. Fish are coming to most tactics depending on conditions. It's even possible to take a fish or two off the top should you fancy a challenge. Try a black shuttlecock!😉
