Post Pictures Of Your Catch. (Mod note in OP 14/05/2015)

Nice one jack well done lad.

was it nearly high tide?

what sort of fly & line did you get them on?

Am going to do a bit myself now as soon as the salmon season closes

jack01986

It was a rising tide, fishing over about 2-3m of water. Was using a sinking line and counting it down for a few seconds to let it get deep. Was using a fairly simple blue and white fly with some red gills. It was a general baitfish pattern.



Kind of like this one but a slimmer profile and the eyes had fallen off.

TimMac

very good well done looks like good sport

TimMac

that fly is a bit like a zonker boobie, did you tie it yourself?

thehamo

Does anyone else find it rediculous that you'd quite happily sit and watch a silhouette flicking a rod back and forth for 10 minutes, not even a bit of sound? Great vid though!

i wouldve thought it was a bream or hybrid??? not a coarse fisherman, but the roach should have orange colour fins and tail?? and more silver in colour??... nice fish anyway

i would say its a bream

How are you finding cloghan lately? Was there last week and it is the worst I have seen. 2 of us had 1 fish in 4 hrs, 2 other tugs but nothing else. Heard that some feckers were using jellied worms, hence the sign at the gate now, and that they had cleaned the place out?

Lough Aisling for me for the rest of the year I think!!!

Very nice fish though Tim, keep it up!!

its not been great the few times i was there, the best day i had 3 fish one at 2lb the others just over a lb.... it was deepened last winter so the clarity of the water isnt as good now, but its getting better,not sure if that would matter much anyway i'm no expert at flyfishing and that 2lber was/is my best there to date,
didnt hear about the jellied worms:eek:, but there was an incident where some dudes arrived spinning!! guards were called i heard:) that was last year though,

have fished cloghan maybe 4 times this yr, last week was the 1st blank,

I think deepening it has also had a bad effect. That was my 3rd visit this year and 1st blank with only 3 fish from the previous 2 visits. Far cry from the 24 in 5 hours and 15 in another 5 hour session from last year.

I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT! and so do others i've spoken to! last time i was there during midday i got 2 but none of any size, one guy was there got 8 or 10 in few hrs, think he was using a big floating fly with 3 buzzers underneath on a very long leader he just chucked it out and sat watching the dry fly(like a float:)) ! i never tried it myself.... he told one of our guys they were down deep,

It was full of them last week - couple of salmon breaking the surface in every pool

My biggest wild brown trout to date, on the inny. I had no scales but I put it at about 3lb 11oz, what do u think?

bayliner

mmmmm i reckon you could be fairly close with that guesstimate:D:D:D

Well guys, have'nt posted in the photo section in ages!
Anyways living in Perth now and have got into the local fishing fairly ok! Heres a few pics from are last 2hr session,



This is a Flathead, quite good to eat and has 2 poision spikes behide each gill cover.


Skipjack trevally or a "skippy". These fish are serious when hooked! I bought a Okuma 8ft alround rod and on the first day snapped it with one of these lads on!


Small sting ray, you can see at the end of the tail before fins out were his barb is. Iv caught another stingray which was nearly a meter wide and took near an hour to land, very hard fish to get the better of when hooked and they take some line of your reel!

Should have a few more pics when we head out again.
