February fly fishing proved popular and you can see why! In addition to several clients taking their 1st day fly fishing, we guided anglers in pursuit of larger trout and pike with great success. Clients landed trout in excess of 5lbs, up to 15lbs, while many of you wanting something different, tangled with pike to […]
Once ice free, lakes provided epic fly fishing during January. Clients enjoyed good catches, with trout in top condition, providing jaw dropping fights for all. During mild spells we also found a few pike in the mood to chomp our flies in crystal clear water. Despite continuing cold spells, subsequent milder weather brought the predatory […]
Fishing this December has been very sparse due to the extreme weather. Lakes froze solid during the first week and have remained so ever since with up to 6 inches of ice. Rivers however ran clear and for short spells some days the odd grayling showed interest, typically during early afternoon when temperatures where highest […]
November has until recent days treated us well. Good fishing on lake and river overall and more anglers than ever eager to sample a great fly fishing experience at this time of year. This week however, frustration rules supreme! Lakes are frozen, rivers are harder to access and understandably, most people are not keen to […]
October’s fly fishing has been awesome in so many ways, it’s difficult knowing where to start! It is said a picture says a thousand words, so lets start with this. With the river trout season over, trips have been focused on stillwater lessons, plus a few early season grayling trips. Tom and I have also […]
Blown and Washed from the water today, it seems a great time to summarize our September fly fishing and look forward to October’s prospects. Excuse the temporary lack of images, technical problems. No I’ve not dropped the camera into the drink again! September, the last full month of the river trout season, has been dominated […]
August was a mixed month in terms of both weather and fishing, with productive and quieter days on both river and lake. As I write day length is shortening fast, bringing with it the onset of Autumn and the promise of some truly dramatic fly fishing to come! Check out the juicy details for august […]
July saw lots of clients having lots of fun, learning lots of new stuff and catching lots of fish! Does it get much better? Check out the details below. Rivers Bryce just edged the best fish of July with the cracking brown trout he was rather excited about above. A possible contender for fish of […]
Flaming June provided further red hot fishing for MFF clients and a very busy month for both fly fishing lessons and guided fishing trips. Check out reports from lakes, rivers, plus prospects for July below. Lakes Early June provided some great fun with mayflies which were subsequently overtaken by Damsel flies. Superb sport on both […]
My favorite month of the year passes in a blur of fly hatches, fish, fishing and guiding, not to mention the wonders of nature which surround us during our forays waterside. Bird life, rabbits, foxes, badgers, deer and all the wild flowers of spring put on a fabulous display during May. How was the fishing […]
