It’s often said that fishing is an art, and perhaps arguably, in none more so than the realm of the fly angler. At Angling 360, as little as we like to admit, we can’t really argue this.
There is a real skill and ‘art’ in presenting a fly in a natural and life like manner, and the elite of fly presentation must be the river dry fly. However, in this instance, the artists in question are, let’s say, a little in-experienced in the land of feather and fluff.
With this in mind, we opt for a nymphing approach as we wade cautiously, yet foolishly optimistically into the new and slightly daunting world of ‘river’ fly fishing with dreams of a 5lb wild Brown Trout bouncing around our heads.
In reality, it was never going to be simple, and a very real and harsh grounding was always a possibility.
Never fear, as there is always a plan B; a little more familiar plan B.
