25th March 2015 Opening Day


A bright sunny day with light winds are set for opening day . The level is good and running clear .
Yesterday I searched the river for signs of activity and at 1405 hrs I spotted movement on a sheltered pool , closer inspection saw a good number of fish intercepting a continuous trickle of olives struggling to get airborne and being confidently taken by greedy fish . I also spotted a March Brown emerge among the olives  and one fish clumsily missed this large fly which drifted through the pool unscathed .
