Tips for the Season

Best flies for the Winter at Meadow Fishery

Meadow Lake

You may not see as many fish rising but believe me - they are still there!

Our top 5 flies

 

Blakestone Buzzer Black.
One of many buzzer patterns that will catch fish. The other most popular colour is olive but red, orange and even white are worth having in your box.

Montana Nymph .
A good all-round nymph/lure in the popular green & black colour combination. Worth trying in both weighted and non-weighted varieties.

 

 

 

Hot Head Diawl Bach.
One of the most successful all-year round nymphs, the Diawl Bach in all its variations is still worth a try at this time of year.

 

 

 

 

 

Mini Cats Whisker.
One of the few lures that has remained popular over the last twenty years or so. (Whatever happened to the Ace of Spades, Ombudsman & Black Chenille?)

 

 

 


Olive Zonker.
At this time of the year the trout are often looking for fry and a zonker of some description is one to have in your box.
