It’s all colours bright and beautiful for Jason O’Riordan of as he fishes in Ardaire Springs Fishery in Mooncoin. Jason tells us:

Been having great success lately fishing various bloodworm type flies static.

Gerard Doran - Ardaire rainbow 1A material I’ve come across this season is the Squirmy material used on squirmy worms and it really works. I got a sample in orange from Funky Fly Tying.

Gerard Doran - Ardaire rainbow 2This is great material that has super action as the worm rises and falls through the water.  It is very soft making the worm lifelike, although after a good few fish it can break.

I tied some of my worms with a weighted bead in the centre and these have been outfishing the unweighted ones for me.  All I gotta do now is acquire some more colours and get tying a good supply

Ardaire Springs recently stocked the Fishery with monster fish, one brown of 20lbs 5oz already caught!! Best get tying;-)
