Big one and Small one

Yesterday, I worked so hard(after Viedo Conference), and I was worn out. So I decided to take compensatory day off today. Of course, I said good-bye to my family and headed for river(with wife's permission).

1St Hole : Recently I vist this Hole First.
There are small rises. They seem to eat someting under the water. I selected Zebra Midge without hesitating.

And, I caught a good one first after long time. I really enjoyed the reaction of living body. He wears so beautiful color!

17.7inchs (45cm)

After releasing, I tried same pattern again, but there is no reaction. I changed the fly to imerger(looks like pheasant tail), and some bite occured, but it wasn't hooked. Finally I caught small one(about 12inchs). After that, rises was getting disappeared, I decide to move.

2nd Hole : Near the first place to visit with Hide

While I was looking next hole, I hit upon plan to test the Lure Fishing just for a change. I tryed Lure Fishing at 2nd hole(new hole to me) for a little while. As a result, I caught also good & beatiful one which is 17inchs(43cm) by Vixen70mmF .

But, I felt strongly again, Lure Fishing is not elegant here & now(especially the spawning season). And I finished it, decide to aim at rising fish by fly.
