Off I went quit late, about three, this afternoon. I decided to pop in to Albury Game Angling, to get some hooks. There were two people who recognised me, one from fly tying class this year and one from last years, as well as Peter Cockwill the owner.
After a chat, I went off for a dabble at Weston Lakes. One chap just leaving had caught three earlier, He said that they were near the top but suspected that they (the fish) had gone lower. He had caught on (from what he described) a Blue Flash Damsel.
I started on one of my Terry's Terror and my new sink tip line, no luck. I changed fly and to a floating double taper line. I tried flies slowly getting larger and larger. Onto a Blue Flash Damsel (one of my own), Then the Brown Minkie I had so much success with the last time. Then a White and Green Cats Whisker and finally a Black Bead Tailed Zonker.
Not a sausage, or even a little tug. My only luck was that the Gillie did not stop when he drove past to collect any money, or on his way back.
