Brighstone Rainbows

Well I think with all of this crap weather cabin fever had well and truly set in. With a dire need to do some kind of fishing and an awful weekend forecast we opted to go fly fishing for trout!
The weather was mental....not the sort of conditions you really want to go fly fishing in but hey - we were desperate!
Casting was mental, not to mention dangerous...fly line was everywhere and with mental gale force gusts we did well not to end up falling in! We persevered and managed to catch a few hungry fish that fought like demons. We kept a couple for the table and took our time returning the rest which all swam off strongly.
 It actually turned out to be a very enjoyable afternoon and scratched the itch. Now we just need some good weather to get out in the boat and see whats about......
