I had 2 hours on penyfan earlier. The Mrs gave me the A ok to go but to make sure I was back to put the kids to bed. So I may the most of it. I managed 13 fish in under the 2 hours all falling to the same pattern. Great fishing just what the doctor ordered. Fly that did the job in pic below. Size 12quilled cdc emerger dressed with a little floatant to get it to sit up in the water.

Hi all, I was fishing the point this morning and unfortunately lost my extending landing net somewhere in the water. If anyone falls over it and manages to recover it, I would be grateful if they could contact me. Many thanks in anticipation. My mobile number is 07999867536. Dave Mathias

I have been wondering whether the feeding cormorants could be disturbed by the regular use of a drone. This could be used when they are both feeding or resting and would not directly harm the birds, something that needs to be avoided at all costs. The regular disturbance may 'persuade' them to feast elsewhere. Drones are not excessively expensive although if one of our members could borrow one it could be trialed to assess whether this was an effective control measure. A drone may also have an use in disturbing poachers.
