The continuing hot weather has resulted in very challenging fishing conditions. However those anglers that adapted to the hot, bright conditions were rewarded with some ‘great dry fly sport’ and some ‘nice fish’. CDC’s, Griffith’s Gnat’s and Shipman’s have all worked remarkably well this week with the majority of the fish landed this week been on various small Dries. Some larger fish have been landed this week, with two anglers landing fish at 10lb+. Thrunton also welcomed this week students from The Glendale Middle school, who all took part in various different activities including Casting Instruction, Entomology and Fly Tying. A good day was had by all and they left with a better casting technique and full of knowledge. Well done!!
