temperature rose to 5.5oC. Water clarity remains very good. For
most of the week the fish were to be found around 3 feet down and
were in different locations on different days, with the area from the

fishing well at certain times. The most successful fly patterns
included Cat’s Whisker, Black Fritz, Damsel, Diawl Bach, Buzzer,
Bibio and dry G&H Sedge. On the bait pond power bait, worms and
