063hrs, Truro River, above the viaduct, near the longstay car park, beside the bowling alley.
There, simple instructions ...!
4 fish in an hour all with short lines, 3 metre, off a Esoteric 360 rod.
All fish between 6-8 inches.
They faught like buggery and i had to move upstream after each take.
Stocks seem good and classic Tenkera skills are required.. i think ;
I was crawling to within 2 meters of the bank and casting blind into the water for the first 2 fish then moved upriver to present the fly to deep pools by tree roots for the 2nd 2 fish.
Not my usual "wack the 7 metre line in the Don and see what turns up" approach.
Thrilling and rewarding are the words that keep coming to mind....
Lovely morning !!
