A lovely rainbow…

Posted by Goosey

Well, after about 2 hours trying to catch something I finally landed a nice ‘truite arc-en-ciel’ or rainbow trout, just near to the bridge at Navarrenx. I tried further downstream where there were more insects than I ever remember seeing hatching out, certainly at this time of the year. Lots of flies, but no trout feeding on them, so I tried further up and used a small streamer. It really was just a perfect day, the sun was shining, the water was crystal clear and even the cold didn’t seem to matter. And then there’s tomorrow…

My first rainbow trout of the year

That’s a huge net by the way ;)
