Red Letter/Fly Day

Took another trip up to Pendle View with Phil-K this afternoon.

We braved a strong northerly wind, and squally showers again, but caught 20 fish between us.

By the time our session was over my fingers were so numb i couldnt feel the pen i was using to record our session in the catch return book.

As i am no more than a novice fly fisherman i can quite honestly say that this was my best day ever – in terms of catch – using a fly rod and line. Thanks Phil for inviting me along, and thanks Dave for tying those flies for me (but i am beginning to worry about where all this red latex is coming from!).

Am going to buy some new waders tomorrow so i can fish the local river for its wild brownies.

I feel a few blanks coming on!
