I've just found a delicious looking swim on a local river. It's got an incoming stream at it's upstream point; perfect for floods; and a nice steadily flowing run down the middle. To cap it all there's on overhanging tree at it's downstream end with a fair depth of water under it, and good flow. The swim isn't fished.
Sounds perfect?
Unfortunately there are electricity pylons nearby. These are the huge things that suspend the wires, I guess, 100 or so feet in the air. The swim is only 10 yards maximum from being directly underneath these. Saying that, there are trees between the swim and the pylons.
If I fished it I'd be using a 12 foot Avon.
Would I be risking my life?
