What is the Catch Book? The Catch Book aims to help beginners and intermediates develop the best fly fishing strategy. As any seasoned fisherman will tell you, there are no guarantees in fly fishing for trout but by capitalizing on some simple information you can tilt the odds in your favour. This page aims to demystify the problem that baffles us all when we are learning to fly fish - which fly should I put on my line?
How does the Catch Book work? The Catch Book details flies that were successfully used to catch trout at the action packed Amherst Lodge fly fishery in previous years.The information is laid out in date order. So when are you next going fishing? Find that date below and see the top performing flies at Amherst Lodge (West Dorset) on comparable dates in previous years. Then compare the weather conditions then with the weather forecast now and hopefully the flies which match both the dates and the weather ought to be good ones to try on your trip!
