There’s a weeks gap then it is the start of the Trout season. I will probably head for the Leven on opening day as I barely fished her waters last seasons because of the drought!<br />No Baseball here but our football (soccer) season runs through winter into May (hopefully Middlesbrough will still be in the promotion places for the Premier League), however spring only arrives when Yorkshire CCC take to the cricket pitch at the end of March for a friendly against the local universities!<br />Thanks <br />AlistairAlistairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04389466523719234443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-2721076996904578452019-01-17T22:20:01.022-05:002019-01-17T22:20:01.022-05:00Great small flies, Alan. #16 is as small as I go,...Great small flies, Alan. #16 is as small as I go, and for my aging eyes hard enough to tie on and get out of a trout. I have read that some anglers on the Swift drift #28 flies on 8X tippet and they connect, but that is not to my liking to fish. <br /><br />Sox Pitchers and catchers reporting to Ft. Myers in 27 days is a sure sign of spring not being far off. Stay safe with a nor'easter coming our way this weekend.
