Simple!
The factor that most affects how an ocean fish feeds is environmental; saltwater angling success depends on a knowledge of the water and of how various gamefish react in that water.

An early morning start today to catch the change of light, resulted in this nice fish on the fly. Drifting the fly through the current onto a known lie resulted in a gentle yet powerful take that left me in no doubt I was into something special. I fished the mini chartreuse and white flatwing on Rio Outbound short F/I with a five foot poly leader and 10 inches of Rio Flouroflex plus carbon. Casting ‘upstream’ and mending when possible it was the first time I had fished for some time due to a lot of guiding days – thanks Alan for the opportunity and the rare photos too. The fish measured 72 cms.

Some nice fish taken yesterday evening on the Cork coast on the fly in very ‘bassy’ conditions. Again thanks to Alan for the quick photos.
My usual and well established colour blend of lavender and grey with a hint of chartreuse is working very well at the moment. Last evenings fly was a slight variation on this as we have added Marabou to the mix – I can almost fish the fly stationery at times and still expect takes.
