Trout
Little Pine Lagoon
It’s a great day when someone catches their first trout on the dry fly. A reasonable Dun hatch Little Pine Lagoon and Geoff lands a couple on the shaving brush fly

Last client for the season
Last client for the season a few weeks back. Caught a good brace of Brown’s from a flooded river. A #14 black bead head nymph under an indicator did the trick
Trout
Lake Strobel, Argentina
Here’s a s snapshot of the fishing in Lake Strobel Argentina. Massive rainbow trout, don’t think there is another trout fishery in the world that comes close to size and number of fish encountered here. Hopefully I will get to fish it again one day. BTW biggest fish was 6.7kg
Flies
Mayflies
The Guides Fly Box, the Mayflies will gradually start hatching soon. This is my version of the shaving brush emerger. I leave a few longer deer hair fibres poking out toward the hook end to imitate the legs. Try to cast it quickly to fish that have just risen to a natural, within 1.5m upwind of the rise and let it dead drift. Theses imitate the hatching mayfly that drifts slowly, can’t fly or swim. I have often seen the fly and the natural floating within inches of each other and the shaving brush gets taken more often than the natural. (Not to used while shaving)
