An Afternoon fly fishing on Llyn Brenig, CDC & Parachute dry flies 25-5-2019 - VCAC

Boy did these trout fight like mad! Is it the time of year? I've fished the lake from a boat once recently with Tom, but I will confess to referring the bank. Just me, I guess. This is the long version, and the fish were all returned safely. I did rest some for a quick photo, but only momentarily and in shallow water. I decided not to cut out all the fighting... even when I stupidly attempted to remove the hook with my fingers... boy are those teeth sharp. Weather wasn't too breezy, although the wind in the GoPro suggests otherwise. A nice, gentle ripple on the surface helped a lot, I rather suspect.
