Special features of a fishing day: My client, Pecos, was a beginner in flyfishing, so we spent some time by improving cast technique and handling the fly. The fish collaborated rather in the morning, because sunshine as a main enemy of fly fishers started to blind our "scaly preys" around 11 a.m. However some nice 11–15 inches fish was deceived incl. one pretty rainbow trout, brook trouts and slimmed graylings, mainly with small czech nymphs and wet flies. The water was a little bit muddy after raining, so it was not so easy to spoke the fish. Client: Pecos, Texas, USA
