How odd.

I think I caught a few game fish on fly this year, maybe half a dozen
tiny brownies but they are an exception.

As usual I have caught considerably more game fish during the same period
by other methods. Many of them sizeable brown trout from a water with a
busy footpath adjacent where a flyfishing backcast is dangerous.

And I've caught a considerable number of fish on the fly which were not
game fish - so OT here.

Cheerio,

A friend of mine caught a 30 lbs Pike on a fly - he was fishing for
trout on Llandegfedd at the time!

Roach are frequently found in still waters and they aren't game fish.


The fish you catch which are not what the majority call game fish may
indeed be "game" for having enough bottle to have a go at your fly.

You haven't included a smiley in your posting so I assume you are
serious.

you should have a word with Andy Lawson, the world expert on catching
coarse fish on 'game' waters. Barbel, Roach, - you name it, he's had it.

Yep... also Grayling (OK... so it has a adipose fin, but is still regarded
as a coarse fish), Perch, Dace, oh and don't forget Chub. River Windrush
last year? Grannom dry fly? You were with me at the time for that one Dave!
)

I do, on occasion, manage to catch a few Trout as well.
