This week has been quite busy with guiding. Monday group at river, Tuesday farm day, Wednesday lake day and now Thursday and Friday one group at river.
I'm writing this by the river on Thursday. Some of guests are still fishing and others having beer or two. We have 1,5km hike back to car and it just uphill. Fishing seems to difficult, still high water and not really active fish around. Everyone has caught something but bigger ones are hiding.
I fished one spot after guest, he said that nothing but I could dig out 3 grayling, One was +35 cm amd others under that. Absolutely careful takes, not easy to hook. Friday's river is open case, I have to check forecast when I get connection. Here there is none as we are in canyon.
During lunch there was nice suprise. One reindeer gps has been out connection few days. Not that I was worried about but it was nice to see Idiot on fireplace. And no he was not in sausage.
Idiot got his name in his first year. We moved reindeer thru big gate, first time he missed gate and hit left side straight to fence, second attemp... right side of gate, straight to fence... third time he made it. We have saying in Finland :" first time is mistake, you just didn't know how to do it, second time, you are just idiot who doesn't learn from mistake, third time... you are hopeless and there is no cure for you."
So Idiot made two mistake twice and got his name.
Saturday we drive to Sweden and Sunday I have guiding there before tvshooting.
Have a nice weekend and don't be idiot. Go fishing
