Al Son 29 Nov 2009 at 12:35 am 3There are lots you can use, firstly a team of diawl Bach’s and bibios fished on a 12ft fluorocarbon leader and on times i have used a muddler as a point fly, but not often, fish it on a sink tip or an intermediate line. Then the favorite of many anglers the washing line set up. Two droppers and a floating point fly, for a point fly a coral booby is an excellent fly to try, for droppers i like skinny buzzers and epoxy buzzers, a jerky slow retrieve works best here, use a co-polymer leader for this. I suggest you try a fishing magazine such as trout fisherman for more advice and whats best at the moment. Also when a mayfly hatch is present you may want to try a dry mayfly fished slowly and singly on a floating line in late afternoon.

You may also want to try a floating fry imatation a little later on in the year like this onehttp://www.fastmailtackle.co.uk/2258.htm…
