What A Day

Thursday 21/04/2011 saw me venturing off to the lower reaches of the River Taff, it was a long journy by  bus and train and was a very hot day ( hottest day of the year so far ) and as soon as myself and fishing companion Terry Bromwell hit the water there were grannom, BWO's, midges and LDO's everywhere and the fish were rising willinly to them even the little ones about an inch in length.

to start off with we had a few nice trout about 1lb in weight which was nice to start the day off with :) rising to klinkhammers and taking nymphs too. Then after venturing off up river Terry was using a french leader czech nymphing some of the deeper faster waters and what a result, some nice trout, a double hook up of salmon parr and a monsterous 3lb grayling :) and then after that there was more and more trout caught and some juvinile grayling too.  But what a day and i cant wait to get back on the river again very soon  :D
