ive never been to a trout fishery , but id of thought there'd be no maggot or worm only fly's ? sounds good though

Worm and maggot???? Who taught you anything about trout fishing.? That's poaching my friend. Trout need to be caught on the fly whether it be wet or dry, nymph or full bodied imitation, lure or otherwise. I think the only time you would use a worm is on a little stream or beck where it was impossible to present a fly. Only my humble opinion. I went this morning full of myself and to be honest caught nowt. This hot weather has sent them down, down, down. Anyway, good luck in your endeavours and as we say, 'Tight Lines'. Jok.

Nice one mate, ......they taste the same however you catch them......I was on a stream last week that normally holds only small brown trout but was surprised to grass a large silver trout ?....not sure what it was but am back up in that neck of the woods next week so will try fishing the shaded areas aswell...tight lines....

Get the hose on the garden for a bit an when all the bigger worms come up them stun them with a lollipop stick to stop em biting ye an throw em in a bait box full a moss, an then get hedgge hopping an find somebody with a compost heap full a branding for next week mate or sneak some power bait in
