Various musings, some from the past, some from the archives of the old FishingMagic, some more recent.
The Beginning - Mid March 2009
Tags fly fishing, neil maidment
Peter Jacobs was the catalyst for my re-entry into the world of The Fly Fisher.
Having gleefully accepted his invitation to join his End of Season get together I then realised that the second day would be at Avon Springs Trout Fishery, Wiltshire.
I didn't take too long to decide to invest in some appropriate gear and suitably kitted out, I couldn't wait to get started.
Graham (The Editor) and Ed also joined us on a bitterly cold, wet, windy and snowy day. My casting technique didn't stand too much close scrutiny but I somehow managed to catch three rainbows.
Suitably inspired and still tingling from the cold and that indefinable sensation created when a trout seizes the fly, I had very quickly decided I wanted more!
I will continue....
