Wild garlic carpeting the woodland floor. In the last week trees have to suddenly burst into leaf across the north. Spring has definitely sprung!
A sizeable trout from a trip out last week. Note the small beetle near the tail. I didn't notice it in the frame at the time, but they fed hard on beetles all afternoon so it was no surprise to see it there. It also highlights just how many there were on the water.

An early start to stop-off for the bluebells on the way to the river yesterday. #bluebells #bluebellwoods #bluebells #bluebellseason #spring #woodland #woodlandphotography #woodland
When I saw the weather forecast for today it may as well have said "Go Fishing", so perfect were the forecasted conditions. And so it proved. It was a day to remember with big fish rising to beetles, gnats and spent grannom everywhere. I filled my boots as they say.
Two images not up to my usual standard but having found a pair of black grouse in the Forest of Bowland today I thought I'd share them out of interest. From what I see online they are expected to return to the area but I can't see any records? @RareBirdAlertUK @forestofbowland
A grey wagtail also waiting for the hatch to start. Note the stump in place of the missing right foot. Birth defect or accident? Whatever the cause it also appears to be affecting a toe on the left foot.
A nice find while out and about today... common buzzard, cropped and uncropped versions. It's always nice to see detailed close-up images but equally it's nice to have some atmosphere and perspective from the background and surroundings.
How can one fish, in a pretty straightforward position, make you work so hard to catch it? It eventually succumbed to a spent grannom pattern.
My mate Tony with a new PB trout, fishing as my guest. We encountered decent hatches but few rising trout, probably due to the northerly airflow and resulting low water temperature.
A couple of images (cropped and uncropped versions) of a curlew and a snipe. Both taken from the car en route to a day's fishing.
Despite all the rain and lost fishing days due to high water it's been a bumper spring on our beats so far this season. This pristine 15lb silver springer was caught by Tony Bell on our Wetheral Beat using a gold bodied version of the Willie Gunn on a 1" aluminium tube.
A short eared owl preparing to dive on its prey, eyes fixed on the target. #shortearedowl #seo #owl
A grey wagtail catches a fly from the river's surface and returns to the rocky shore.
I thought it was going to be a blank today with nothing hatching in a biting wind. In truth I picked the wrong river as it was a bit high. Eventually I found this one, an ounce under 2lb, who took a Partridge & Violet Jig: yorkshire-dales-flyfishing.com/nymphs.htm#Par…
An attempt at photographing a skylark in the Yorkshire Dales during its display flight. I think I can be happy with these as it wasn't easy (understatement).
Sometimes in flyfishing everything comes together. Yesterday one of my local streams was at the perfect level, clear & with a trickle of olives. I went up it with my 6' #2 glass rod & single nymph. In a quick session these 3 trout graced my net with an average weight of 2lb 10oz!

I recently became aware of a trout the fly pattern of Canadian origins called the Knouff Lake Special. Further research led me to see that there are a plethora of variations of this fly around. I like this variation as it aligns with my favourite style of tying and fishing.
