[report]they sell 13 tickets for 8km or some shit... fuck knows.

we wondered if it would be okay if we just fished a little bit further apart... we didn't.

wogs fish like seppos.jpg (144.58 KiB) Viewed 5961 times

you cannot fish earlier than 830am.
you cannot fish later than 9pm.
you can fish only dries and nymphs upstream on barbless.
you cannot enter the first klick of water.
you cannot fish on tuesdays.

I love this place already, it just makes sense.

limited resources and the fact that fishing dries in the pissing rain dictated roy spent the last evening skinning up and tying these.
I watched and drank more nastro.

bombers for rain.jpg (138.34 KiB) Viewed 5932 times

I think on average there is one wild fish for every yard of this drink.
as they were italian fish, about 20 of the fuckers crowded themselves in this spot.

Good shit, I fished around Todi and Gubbio a few years back. Looks familiar.

[shunned]

[report]roy,

I want the lads here to know that if they are ever 8hrs across the pond they should look you up as I had a fucking blast.
never a dull moment and always in good spirits. I reckon the only time I was sober was in between the minute I woke until the minute I first run into you every day. good times.
I was honoured to fish with you and even after I told you I knew absolutely everything about fly fishing and fly tying you still managed to look out for us. well done and thank you.

sincerely,
mitch

revelation of the trip: roy really really misses his citreon ds. I have never experienced banshee mourning like that in my life.

confession of the trip: roy, mate... I know fuck all about cars.
