C.A.D.A.C........An Electric day !! 15th June 2009

I had booked a few days off work so today I headed for my club water C.A.D.A.C. The club has some wonderfull water and the day before the Grayling season opens I was after catching a few trout. The weather was forecast for a few isolated showers, so I tackled up and headed down to the river a beat near Tyfos.

A few fish were already rising so I had settled on a 7ft tapered leader with a size 18 Elk hair caddis, (Latest purchase from Ebay) not self tied I must add, but a stunning tied fly all the way from the states. It wasn't long until my first fish of the day had hit the net a nice Grayling which was quickly returned, a Grayling of the same size tomorrow will certainly warrant a mug shot!

Numerous Grayling coming to the net from the same fly do they really know its a day before the opening of the season?. I continued down the river with a half hour spell sat on the bank trying to shelter from the second shower of the day, coupled with an almighty electric storm ! I didnt fancy waving a 9ft length of carbon around it could have been curtains for me !!!.

The storm passed and the fish had stopped rising so I tried out a few nymphs and they didn't dissapoint a nice trout falling to my favoured GRHE. I fished on through the early evening with over a dozen or so fish to the tally. A great day to be out once again on the club waters. Looking forward to returning tomorrow for the opening day of the Grayling season.

Thymallus Thymallus watch out !!!!!
