The Five Month Wait Begins!


 
This being the sixth day of the tenth month of two thousand and twelve I decided to end the trout fishing season this afternoon by spending a few hours at my local Hillend Loch. Needless to say I didn't manage to fool any trout what so ever. Apart from the flytying and the occasional grayling outing to look forward too I will have to endure the dark nights of winter, Halloween, Guy Fox Night, Christmas and New Year before I can start thinking of the new fishing season on the fifteenth day of the third month of two thousand and thirteen.

    Not been to a fishery in winter for years Last time was about 4 years ago when I went to Markle. Used to visit fisheries now and again years ago a couple of my favourites were Tweedsdale and Allandale Tarn. Tinto fishery is open all year round so I might have a visit there if weather is mild. But I would rather go fishing for the grayling in winter
