Fishing the Noe yesterday (8/7/20): After all the rain; high, fast, coloured and turbid and 10.0ºC. Fish however obliged with all but one of the ten fish (I stop at ten) taking one of my "Usual Suspects" here, no preference for colour. @pfac1861 @WildTroutTrust #flyfishing

Who's Afraid of the Big .. Bad .. Wulff - With the Mayfly season just about to get into full swing across the country, we thought it was a good time to slightly revamp our Barbless Wulff Selection. https://t.co/jiLzjycP8H

Fancy a Brew? As a fly angler, you will appreciate the finer things in life. The gentle gurgle of water as the river passes by on its way through the landscape, the occasional soft splash as fish feed, oh yes, and a lovely hot brew in your favourite mug. https://t.co/OgkEF3or6q

[Angling Trust @AnglingTrust]

With prolonged hot, dry weather continuing, it's a good time to have a read about how temperature affects the fish we catch. This article from our Freshwater Team could help you catch more fish and promotes good fish care.  https://t.co/Fd4xQcl7NI

Hatch Chat - Large Brook Duns are found in the more upland parts of the UK. The nymphs like rocky, boulder-strewn rivers. Their preferred habitats are acidic rivers flowing over bedrock and boulders because their nymphs live under stones. https://t.co/RrjDfvsLeA
