Yesterday afternoon I spent a few hours on the South Esk at Mill Road. It was hot, muggy, and sheltered from the northerly wind. There wasn't much happening when I first got there, so I fished a team of two nymphs (leader to hand) for the fast water section up to the first weir. Caught and released three or four fish this way.
On the still water above the weir fish were sipping midge from the surface so I swapped to my floating line and used a small black spinner pattern. Took another six or seven fish on the dry. Released all but one. And, one, a good one (!) broke me off.
I was trying to get some pics to up load here, but came to the realization that it is near impossible to fight a fish AND take a picture of the fish at the same time...will have to wait for good pics.
