Overcast , cool and breezy = dry fly weather ! Ell Overcast , cool and breezy = dry fly weather ! Ellis joined me for his first go at fly fishing today . A complete natural with the casting we were soon over on Rook hall where the fish were up and feeding on a buzzer hatch . Hares ear emergers bought 8 fish to the net for Ellis with plenty of other chances on the way . Looks like we have really turned a corner now with Home water also fishing well today . To slow fished lures and apps under the bung . #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigboroughfisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #fishing #dryflyfishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide www.flyfishing-essex.com
Grafham on top form today . Duncan and I spent the Grafham on top form today . Duncan and I spent the day exploring the lake away from the busy G bouy . Poppers and shrimps in a foot of water bought a steady stream of big silver fish to the boat . Duncan hooked a monster brown. That nearly jumped in the boat but sadly shook the hook well into the fight .. Brilliant autumn sport . #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #upavonflyfishing #grafhamwater #flyfishing #trout #learntofish #flyfishingguide #experiencefishing #browntrout www.flyfishing-essex.com
Great catch up with my mate David today . He manag Great catch up with my mate David today . He managed a solid 7 fish in tricky conditions fishing a single sugar cube emerger . Rook hall has suffered a big O2 crash over the last week due to abnormally high water temperatures for November . This has resulted in fish behaving in a stressed way shoaling tight in the margins . Sam and Tad have begun vigorously aerating the lake today with 3 pumps and this has made an immediate impact with the fish starting to settle down . Please take a long handled landing net and take plenty of time to recover your fish until it’s strong enough to swim away . Tight lines for the weekend . #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigboroughfisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide #catchandrelease www.flyfishing-essex.com
This weekend I was joined at Chigboro by Nigel and This weekend I was joined at Chigboro by Nigel and Allen both first time fly anglers . Conditions were far from ideal over the two days with a freezing easterly breeze and low mist . But both guys persevered with shallow fished indicator tactics scoring best on the rook hall rainbows . Home water has just had a double stocking and rook hall is due another top up this week .. It’s all shaping up for a fantastic winter on the lakes again . #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigboroughfisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide #fishing #trout #rainbowtrout #fishingexperience www.flyfishing-essex.com
Some lumps in Rook Hall at the moment . First time Some lumps in Rook Hall at the moment . First time for Brian trying his hand with a fly rod . Bright sun and a good breeze saw us change tactics to hanging apps worms under the indicator . 12 fish in a hectic session for Brian and he’s already putting a shopping list together for his first fly kit ! #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigboroughfisheries #upavonflyfishing #experiencedays #fishinggifts #flyfishing #fishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide www.flyfishing-essex.com
First time out with a fly rod for Rob Mayes and Ch First time out with a fly rod for Rob Mayes and Chigboro pulled out all the stops ! 8 fish landed and a few lost in a hectic 3 hour session . Small lures and daddies pulled just under the surface worked a treat . Rook hall is looking superb and the fish are finally starting to settle out a bit . More of the same tomorrow we hope ! #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigboroughfisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #fishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide www.flyfishing-essex.com

First of four days on Grafham #therealmecca . Shar First of four days on Grafham #therealmecca . Shared the boat with regular Andy Kincella . We had action from the first to last drift today .

Well that was an incredible couple of days fishing Well that was an incredible couple of days fishing for Uk Bluefin Tuna . I was invited to join my good friend Paul Henderson in Falmouth and the crew on www.atlanticbluefin.co.uk chasing these UK monsters . The fishing over two days was nothing short of epic . We successfully landed 11 fish between us the largest at 74 inches you could have put a saddle on ! A couple of fish lost and a bonus angry 100lb blue shark in the gear to liven a quiet spell ! The sport was hectic at times and even in the lulls the sheer amount of wildlife to be seen kept us occupied . Countless common Dolphins shadowing us , Pilot and Fin Whales , Ocean sunfish and cruising sharks not to mention the varied bird life . Steve and Mike were excellent hosts working tirelessly to keep us on fish all day . Thanks Paul for the invite , I can’t wait for the next trip ! #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #upavonflyfishing #atlanticbluefintuna #saltwaterfishing #therugisthedrug www.flyfishing-essex.com

Superb few days on Grafham . Out with Gwyneth on F Superb few days on Grafham . Out with Gwyneth on Friday having a look about ahead of the ladies national today . Fish are well spread about the north shore . We caught on a variety of lines and flies with most of the fish around drop offs and weed beds . Sat I shared the boat with Duncan and Malcolm . Heavy overcast pulled the fish back into the shallows and it was a floating line day for sure .. short drifts in just feet of water providing decent action all day to the guys . Looks like Grafham has turned the corner . Looking forward to having a good look about for some of the Mose residents .. we creatively moved some decent fish this weekend . If you are looking for a guided day get in touch asap , September is fully booked now and Oct is getting very busy ! #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #upavonflyfishing #grafhamwater #flyfishing #flyfishingguide www.flyfishing-essex.com

Tough day at the office but no blanks again ! Fish Tough day at the office but no blanks again ! Fish seemed very switched off today but first timers James and Jack stick with the game plan . We fished deep buzzers under the indicator to winkle a couple of fish out on what was otherwise a very quiet day across the lake . Cooler weather forecast for the next week so hopefully the fish will get back on the feed soon . #teamwychwood #chigborofisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide www.flyfishing-essex.com
Well the bright hot weather hasn’t put the chigb Well the bright hot weather hasn’t put the chigboro fish off ! Travis joined me today to brush up on some casting and a few fishing techniques. We had to follow the fish down fishing buzzers between 6-10ft and this produced a steady stream of fish all day . Don’t be too put off with a couple of days heat .. waters still cool down there ! #teamwychwood #takeyourfishingfurther #chigborofisheries #upavonflyfishing #flyfishing #learntofish #flyfishingguide #summerfishing #fishing www.flyfishing-essex.com
