cheers Fred
it is the first time i have seen these from my pond , no wander the fish are going nuts this evening lol.

evening rise in my own back garden lol.... think even my river gear is over sized my back garden is to small to cast in.


Just had a small morning hatch of more caddis flies, and the fish were enjoying it lol.
