Fishing

I decided late this afternoon to have a couple of hours fishing on the local reservoir, it wasn't ideal fishing weather, the wind was a strong westerly blowing large breakers against the dam wall. However that makes it hard to cast but easier to hide the fly. After a couple of hard hours I got a take, then another. I actually lost two trout before I landed the first, then had a couple of small Perch which I returned, and just as the evening was turning into a wet one I caught my second Trout. For those interested I was using a Black foam Beetle, the fish weren't interested in anything else. I had tried various traditional wet flies, a couple of lures, even a Deer hair muddler, but the old beetles won the day. Very pleasant evening and the fish are already in the freezer.
