Feels like Summer

The recent warmer weather coupled with cloudy and balmy evenings really gave me a notion for some trout fishing. I used the Guideline experience #6 with a 14ft tapered leader and a CDC and elk hair caddis, (ultimate fly round our way!). I am using my Greys Grxi 9ft #5/6, lovely rod and suited the line really well. Got some good results, this chappy and lost a decent fish as it smothered itself in weeds and broke me, felt really decent, 3lb plus. The caddis were swarming late in the evening and into dusk, great sight to see and trout were gorging, eventually my flies were either lost or fell apart so I left the trout to it.
