I Think its all Over for 2013

Another week flashes past and the weather still has not improved any and looking at the long term weather predictions over Christmas & New Year it doesn't seem to change much. In a way I'm now glad that I never put in for any holidays over the next few weeks and can save them for days when I can get out on the river.
The river has not been down to fishable levels for quite a few days now, this being the reading yesterday.

0.68m being the top level you can comfortably fish it at, anything after that you might as well pack up & go home as your flogging the water.
I think unless the weather predictions are wrong I have seen my last session after the Grayling this year 3 weeks back now, I cant complain too much as I've had an absolutely stunning start to this years Grayling Season, and some lovely fish caught both trotting & on fly.

This is probably my favourite picture since the start of the Grayling season this year.













and after a bit of playing around.


I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has asked me to make floats for them in the past 12 months, I've thoroughly enjoyed making them for you to fish with & I hope they have brought you as much enjoyment from using them as I got from making them for you.

I've got a couple of floats ticking away in the background, keeping me going and sane and a bit different from my usual offerings, I wont say too much at this stage.
I hope everyone who reads my Ramblings has a Merry Xmas & a Prosperous New Year and thanks for the support over a difficult 12 months hopefully next year will be an improvement and no more hospital visits.


To all my Scottish Tongue friends....
