Fishing has had to take the backseat for the last 3 or for weeks as there is a new man in my life! Barney is a 12 week old Labrador Retriever puppy. He is going to (hopefully!) undertake gun dog training once he grows a bit older which I hope he will enjoy. I am sure he will also be a great companion on my fishing trips and I might also let him retrieve a few rainbow trout for me provided he has a soft enough mouth!
I did manage to take a boat out on Ladybower at the weekend with a good friend of mine. We fished near the cages and I managed 2 rainbows both on large orange lures. I couldn't get a take on dry flies or buzzers and we didn't get a knock anywhere on the reservoir besides near the cages where there were a few fish moving. There were a few others out who seemed to be doing really well using indicators with static flies but that isn't really my thing.
So things are a bit slow still but as we head in to mid to late September I would anticipate that things will pick up again as the fish start feeding properly again for the winter.
