While I’m pining for the season to start I was fortunate enough to catch fish on a couple of continents during my travels.

Here are some of my favourites…

Close to home and near black in the peat-stained streams:

I recall this day being particularly challenging for no seemingly obvious reason, however this little chap saved it all:

Splitting things over two posts here as I’m limited on the image posting!

Plenty of grayling on the run into winter, taking small dries on almost every outing.

Memorable trip to Colorado, fishing some bigger rivers and satisfying to still get some sub-surface takes with unweighted kebari

Apologies for the low image quality. Fading light and an old camera.

Decent Brown from the local creek. The more I fish this creek the more I’m learning about where the fish like to stack up. Finding bigger ones too, just a tad too much to handle with the Sagiri 39MC.

I’ve caught some decent sized fish on the Sagiri including catfish. You just need to “walk” with them sometimes!

I’ve been surprised by how well the Sagiri handles the odd decent size fish, considering it is Hae rod.
The fish I hooked up before the one pictured above was bigger. It darted out from underneath a slab of aggregate concrete then simply went straight back. I was unable to coax it out and in the end it broke me off against the rock as I tried to hand winch it out.

Old man winter seems like he is finally willing to let go here in New England this year.

Debut fishing with the new rod, Suntech GMR Special II 36NP. Used as a small keiryu setup fishing with curl grubs. The rod is a cracker!

3 Browns
