This month, as we have a good crowd of novices and fist time visitors coming along, I thought I would try and give you an insight to some of the flies that work well here at Brick Farm Lakes. Some will work all year round pretty much and others are quite seasonal. Sometimes the fish and nature take us by surprise, like when I saw daddy long legs on April 5th!! It just goes to show that you need to take the time to walk or talk to find out what’s occurring when you are arriving to fish for the day. With complimentary refreshments available in the lodge, time taken to enjoy a coffee at the start of the day with a fellow angler may pay dividends to maximise your chance of catching, especially if you are a novice. I know we are all keen to start fishing straight away, but as I say, we can share a lot of knowledge between us all and a quick stroll round the water’s edge to see what is around may pay off big time!
To begin with… the flies coloured black and green as a combination always work well here throughout the year. If you think about it these natural colours are mostly the hues of all insect and plant life found in the water and so it stands to reason that the trout will be used to feeding on this material as a matter of course.
