Knowing your water…
I had some great fishing a couple of weekends ago on a difficult river. A river that demands intimate knowledge more than most. Slowly but surely I’m attaining that knowledge and where I once blanked quite often, now I rarely do. On my last trip I picked up fish blind in riffles, I sight fished a few and hooked a couple of free risers. A fantastic, well rounded day.
More recently Jeff and I went chasing big trout about a days drive north. I already had these pics selected for the blog so before I start on the big fish mission I’ll put this little one out. Watch this space! There will be big trout in the next one… very big!

- This fabulous trout was rising. I covered him, he refused it but then turned and decided it was good enough after all!

- A beautiful river.. Sun is a huge advantage but not essential. Even in bad light some fish can still be spotted.

- Cloud and rain forecast but I got a good bit of sun! And some great trout… This one blind from a riffle.

Nice work, Breandan. At some stage I’ll dig out everything you’ve ID’d and dedicate a report to you and your IDing expertise!
Was going to do the same for your fishing expertise!!!
