16th September 2008

Took a moment this evening to throw a line around, beautiful evening, no wind, nice sunset, good water level and a river full of fish.  In less than an hour I counted 28 in the air and saw 8 - 10 on the surface.  Tried several flies, no response, put on a green/white bomber dropped into slower water and a salmon struck it on the second cast.  It gave a nice fight which took me to dusk and that was it for the evening.  I half expected to see it was a bright fish due to the fight, lots of tail walking but no, it was dark.  I have yet to see any of these bright I’m hearing about.
