Protecting young??

I didn't know my hands could get so cold. Few hours up in Snowdonia today in a boat. Bloody freezing, no fly life but a dozen to the boat on intermediates. Not much prettier than a wild Welsh Brown trout from a pollution free Llyn.

Corruption in the Bay didn't start yesterday . . .

Over a decade ago Welsh Government sold the Ferodo site in Caernarfon to Bluefield Caernarfon Ltd, which dissolved in January 2016 with 4 outstanding debts

Bluefield Caernarfon was 35% owned by Bluefield

The First Minister took £200k from a convicted polluter.

He cannot act as judge and jury in his own case.

We need an independent inquiry under the Ministerial Code.

Another wee batch heading to the northwest corner of Scotland, plus getting ready to kick off the season on my local waters, a top up for my own box

First wee chuck of the season today off the bank, high in Snowdonia. 10.30 start and very cold and strong wind. Warmed up about noon and a few came up to play before I called it a day at 2pm. Even a double header all on the same fly, one point and one top dropper. Ross 👍

There you go guys - today's dying art form in 100% fur and feather. For a longtime client heading to South Uist chasing a few sea trout in a couple of months. My traditionals, variants and bomber muddlers to his recipe. Just add a decent blow.!!

All dressed up and nowhere to go. Bit breezy out there.

Not fair weather lads then ? Leave it with you. G

Positive day, a wee order done and a decent punt on the winner of the Irish Grand National.

Must be Xmas or Easter !!

Just to get you all ' In the Mood ' for a fresh week ahead.

Any idea who funds this ' charity ' ? WG ?

Go on yourselves lads, best there is - last 60 seconds are classic.

I'm looking forward to this again. Will tie a few flies and bring a first aid kit just Incase.

I'm A Fly-Fisher Get Me Out of Here! returns for this year's The Wild Trout Trust Auction. Fishing and camping for 1 rod on a Welsh lake with Matthew Wright George Barron and Ben Jailler. A once-in-a-lifetime 24-hour trip but possibly not for the faint-hearted… bit.ly/48LKbDz

Thought I'd get in early on the new WG Sustainable Housing Scheme, where you give over 10% of yer home working area ( kitchen ) to qualify for a decent Welsh NHS, education and clean rivers. Does a window sill qualify I wonder ?

Hello, is there anybody there ? Great day to get a bit of vitamin D and all to myself. Don't tell WG there's some pleasure to be had out there because they'll likely find a way to feck it up.

A few more to fill a corner of my Irish box - or add to the heap. Olives came into play last twice but its been a funny old winter with high water levels. They've managed to get me a few tugs these last few years, so hopefully .......
