First chub to the spinn |  |
That was really special day. First day of season with new spinning rod. Good for fishing, because air temperature go up to 46F and pressure pick up too. River was very low, so I start from small Rapala lure.
After about 300 yards where river go deeper from my side I saw nice pike following my spinn, but not ready yet to take it - a bit too slow in cold water :) Next beats was so busy, because of coarse anglers and some kids playing rocks. After past them all I did break. By sitting down and watching river I saw something silver nearly bank. As I go to check it I found same salmon dying after so tired spawn: youtube
Day slow down, evening coming. And I still without fish. But on surface I recognise some activity of fish. Because my line got tangle after long time of spinning I cut it and tying new very small Rapala lure. It is going very nice at maybe 1ft deep. Nearly 5PM and next circle on water I decide to cast my bite there. I got some gently few bites? Cast again a bit above last place and bang! Fish on. After quick fight nice fat fish on the bank. Quick photo and back to the water. Yes! My trip I finish with success :)
Nearly 6PM I have go to train station.
