Rivers
Despite the fact the rivers are low, the Wye and the Derwent are both fishing their respective heads off at the minute. Lots of mayfly around now, and the fish are on them. Discount other flies at your peril though. Good fish have been taken on greenfly, with midges and medium olives around in abundance. The Olives are showing later in the afternoon. There is still the odd hawthorn about too.
Keep an eye out for those tiny rises as they can yield some surprising results. Good luck to all those who have been lucky to get a ticket on the Wye at this special time of year.
Stillwaters
Foremark has been fishing well with good sized fish between four and six pounds. Best areas for boats, Ticknall Bank, Heron Bay, Cascade and Flamingo Bay. On the bank, Hut Point, Sunblest Bay and Bramble Bay. Flies worth a try at the minute are Booby’s, Damsels, black or olive Buzzers.
