Despite of the fairly high water level in the river after the rain fish took our flies well. On the streamer we’ve caught a few decent brook and brown trouts. After lunch, the first attempt to fish with tenkara, which was crowned with success. In addition to dozens of trout we’ve caught a few small graylings. At the end of the day we stopped in a very wild place, as Robert said, looks like Colorado in USA. It was a sophisticated place for fishing with deep holes, waterfalls, hanging over the water, rocks, and trophy fish. In the evening the atmospheric pressure started to fall down, so the fish begun to refuse our flies. Clients: Robert Bennett, USA and Eric Hansen, Australia
