Session three- Match the Hatch: 24th May 1830-2130: Trout enjoy a varied diet, which changes throughout the day depending on the time of year and weather and many other factors. Our challenge is to develop our understanding of what they eat and how to imitate that with artificial flies.

What do fish eat? When do fish eat them? How can we mimic what they eat? What are the different types of artificial flies and how do we fish them?
