River Fishing

Today was my first trip on the rivers of 2011. The conditions were not great with a strong north wind and bright sunshine. And even though we have had a lot of rain, the water was crystal clear.

I tried several pools with no success. I also tried many different flies. But after 2 hours no luck. So I went into a deep pool and tied on a small Mary, and sure enough after 10 minutes 2 fish followed in quick succession.

So overall it wasn't a bad first trip.
