Trout season starts with a cracker!

Local angler and instructor, Bob Wellard, was the first angler out after trout on a glorious spring day on March 16th. Bob fished beat four on the Thrushel, and while fishing was not at all easy with few flies hatching and low water temperatures, he managed a beauty of 11-12in. In his own words...

Many thanks for a super afternoon on the Thrushel – I had a very relaxing time and managed to catch three trout – Best 11-12”
Used my 8ft 4” #4wt Scott G2, StreamCaster Line.
Fish caught on Klinkhammer & Gold Head GRHE Nymph.
Best wishes for a successful 2009 season.

Bob
