O.K. I t seems as if there is enough interest in a UA, flyfishing trip.

I think the venue should be bait as well as f/f freindly, and will be decided later.
First off is the date, and some indications of people intersted. ( Some venues can't handle large numbers ).

Sunday 3rd March is good ito moon phase?

And ye say what ?

Excellent Gerhard! Control flies like rockworms and caddis imitations will be good, and smaller caddis and mayflies for the point. Even San Juan worms are killers, they always work if the water clarity isn't too good.
