Fishing has continued to be excellent despite the varied weather this week with most of the fish caught in the top few feet of water except for Thursday when the thunder put the fish right down. Anyone on kill tickets still managed to get their fish and despite the miserable conditions left happy.. It continues to be that no single tactic seems to be bringing greater success - floating, intermediate and even sinking lines have been used by anglers with lures, nymphs and buzzers all productive. 
CDC flies have been very successful during better spells of weather and dries including small Daddies, Shipmans and Klinkhammers have all worked well. Top flies this week were damsels, black and olive buzzers and Diawl Bachs (Red Holo) .
Roy Morrison had a cracking days fishing with his biggest a 7lb 4oz fish on a floating line and a toxic carrot buzzer. Brian Flemming (above)from Lisburn had 14 all on a floating line with buzzers.
Brian Kerr (left)from Armagh had 12 on Monday including this lovely rainbow around the 4lb mark. Brians fish were all taken with buzzers and dries.
Davy McBurney from Belfast (pictured with Sara) had 18, again on a floating line with buzzers.
The week also saw the Moira Game Fair taking place on Saturday and Sunday at Moira Demesne. Thanks to all who came and said hello at the Brookhall stand. It was mixed weather with Saturday turning out very wet but Sunday was a beautiful day and saw many more visitors turning up for the exceptional show which was very well organised with something for the whole family
A special thanks to actor Chris Chittell who plays Eric Pollard in Emmerdale who took the time for a chat and a photo with the Brookhall Fishery Representatives.
This week we also had a visit from Ian Summerell who is the PRO for the UCSW [union of country sports worker]. Ian is the Editor of Country Sports Radio & Country Sports TV.Ian was at Brookhall Fishery on Monday to interview Staff and anglers at the Fishery for radio and also took some footage for a broadcast which we hope will go out in the very near future.
