Well here's my craft of choice for fishing anyway being superbly modelled by my wife, Sarah. A float tube proved to be a really effective way to get on to the water & target the perfect wild brown trout of Simmesjon.
Normally it takes three or four trips to new water before I can get a handle on it & catch anything. Well, first trip & five fin perfect brown trout all caught (& returned) on a small white & yellow fly I couldn't believe my luck, I've never had a first day on a new water ever go this well!
The pressure was on for my next trip. It was the day before my wife's birthday & she wanted smoked trout for her tea. Well wha' d' ya know, fished hard but could only manage one (plus a couple of perch). At least not a complete disaster & the trout tasted fantastic!
