Ok,m so this is the first year I am fly fishing and I am heading to the Yough later this month and looking for some fly suggestions. I will be just below the dam in the are of the out flow.

Here's a hatch chart to help guide you. http://wilderness-voyageurs.com/flyfish-hatches.html

The yough can be tough, but very rewarding. Up closer to the dam is a lot of stocked trout, so the typical buggers, eggs, hare's ears, etc can be effective.
Midges are usually effective between the two bridges.

Wade safely. I recommend a wading staff.

Thanks so much, I wasn't sure how reliable those charts were
