My First Wild Brown Trout of 2022 and on a Dry Fly!

[@proskipper1]

What a great start to the season - lovely fish!

[@ascot1049]

Keep them coming .

Looks like an excellent start to your season. Tight lines

[@robertalp3878]

It’s a beauty!

Well done, only managed some on nymphs so far despite trying dries on both my outings. Going cold now for next weekend so may have to wait a bit, it will come in the end.

[@fieldsman3307]

Well done, went out again today before the cold spell but another blank

[@paulbryan1094]

Well done that man ! I was going to Dartmoor in a couple of days but I’ve just tested positive for the dreaded C19. Makes it all the sweeter when I get there.

Good job I've just had my first 2 yesterday about that size

[@idris6472]

First day of the season and I had 6 takes, 2 hookups and one landed; all 4 ounces of him. Chuffed to bits I was. Here's to a good season WCA.

hi Paul, went again on Monday and started my season with a pound and half brownie so they are starting to look up

[@WestCountryAngler]

That’s a really nice sized fish! I tried again on Sunday and had two rises but nothing to the net. Here’s hoping we have a long season

[@SMG-888]

Hi what fly did you catch the trout with?

[@WestCountryAngler]

Hi. It was an elk hair caddis, my favourite dry fly

[@SMG-888]

@@WestCountryAngler I tried them on the frome yesterday l got nothing. I will keep trying. Cheers for the reply mate

[@WestCountryAngler]

I saw a rise on the small river when I was walking my dog at the weekend and a couple this evening but it’s gone so cold again

[@robertalp3878]

What fly did you catch it on?

[@WestCountryAngler]

It was my most used fly, elk hair caddis
