Only one fish but...

Another hour on a 1st visit to a new stretch of my local river. Its a field away from the road, but noticed a feeder stream running down to it. Popped myself in and used it to
reach the river.

An island on the river - so a good spot to start.
Best of three landed, not very big, but it's nice just to be at a new spot

A lovely secluded spot & will return

That looks a cracking spot, are you spinning or on the fly ?

Spinning Robbi, started on the mepp, but no joy, switched to a Rapala lure which did the trick.

One of 16 Brook Trout caught from a small river(creek) In deepest Alberta, Canada

The creek had been damed by Beavers & the pool upstream of the dam was stuffed with the Trout. Lovely markings.

An hours urban fishing this evening, Cloudy, raining & cool for this time of year but six landed, all in great shape. Fished along a stretch of the river in the middle of a local town. Lost as many as I landed, great to see Brown Trout thriving in an urban environment & an indicator of how good the condition of the water is here.

The biggest of the six , alongside a buried Tesco shopping trolley!

Best of three landed this evening between the downpours

Lovely condition & getting lots of food by the look of it.

Back to one of my favourite spots for a bit of evening Brown Trout fishing.
1st three casts resulted in one Trout lost followed by two Pike, they seem to be on the increase here. The biggest of the two.

Great sport on the light tackle. Moved upstream and landed 7 Brown Trout in total lost as many.

Another quality hour spent at the river.
