Fly Fishing Thompsons Creek Dam - THIS made all the difference!

Fly fishing lakes in winter is so much fun, one of my favourite ways to fish! Thompsons Creek Dam has a reputation for being a difficult fishery at times, and particularly when you have a flat calm glass out, but it's great being able to polaroid big fish cruising in close to the shore!
It's often the case that fly selection is much less important than presentation, but this particular day proved to be very much the exception to the rule - if you weren't fishing with the "magic bullet" then your chances were very low.....

Thanks mate, yeah it’s a cool fishery, awesome to see those big fish cruising in close in clear water….they can be pretty tough though! ;)

Tough fishing up there Peachy. Back to where I met you. Only had two days up there this winters because our local lake is fishing so well. Thanks for the video mate.

Good one Peachy, I've used the Blob a bit down here in Tassie with not much luck yet mate

Cheers Shane! Yeah it’s certainly not a pattern that seems to work everywhere all the time, but when it’s hot it’s really hot…

Would that blob/fab work early season on the rivers ?

@PeachyFlyFishing 10 ай бұрын

Thanks mate! I’ve never tried a blob in the river, I would think that perhaps at the very end of season when the spawn run is starting on somewhere like the Eucumbene or Thredbo it could work……good question! :)

Really enjoyed this one! Must say, I'd have been tempted to throw a single, unweighted Glo Bug in front of those "false spawners" up in the shallows. I have a hunch they're taking those awful bloody "Blobs" and things as big clumps of roe... not much else looks like that or is that colour!

Thanks Steve! Yeah I suspect you're right mate they probably most resemble a clump of roe, though intriguingly they work as well if not better when retrieved, sometimes quite fast! I think that more than anything else it's just the particular colour that triggers an aggression response over the winter months, and it's because of it's similarity to the colour of the roe....
