Can anyone tell me which flies other than daddy long legs to use on reservoirs in September? I have looked about and most seem to be on lures but I thought they were more for winter? Should I be on nymphs? weather seems to be hiding dry flies. Any help appreciated
Thanks
Paul
I will be fishing Carsington Waters , Derbyshire, in August this year . Any advice as to what flies would be best.
Many Thanks.

hi paul. if the fish are taking daddies why use owt else?? best thing to do is have a wander down to local tackle shop and have a word. invest in a small entomology book then see what flies are swarming round the water you are fishing. buzzers are always a good bet whatever the time of year try black ones later on in the year. another bet is to just go through your fly box and keep a journal of what you caught on weather conditions etc etc. hope this helps but what do i know i just bust my rod!!!(see other posts)
