I managed to fish a river quite close to home that I have not been able to fish before so I knew I might have my work cut out trying to find the fish.
The water was perfect for the french leader as it was early morning so I rigged up with a green caddis pupa and a hares ear with purple thorax both with 2.5mm tungsten beads.
Half hour,amazing water and no fish.Time for a change.
Off came the point fly and on went a black nymph with a heavier 3mm bead.4 casts and into a fish,I had found them.
Bigger than usual trout jumping out of the water on the end of my line and putting up one he'll of a fight and the bonus of a couple of grayling.The scenery was perfect.
Really enjoying fishing some new places.
