What can I say? After a period without fishing, you start to wonder if you're still into the game. Well, as soon as I saw the gin clear streams near the Austrian border it started to itch again... What will this spring bring us?After the weird conditions of last year, I was hoping for conditions without extremities. We were blessed with excellent weather conditions. Just the weather I like for my fishing: sunny and warm.
The river conditions were close to normal. I did notice some changes in the structure of the river. Seems like the river endured some heavy rain causing strong enough current to change the structures on the bottom as well as the edges of the river.
For me our highlight of the trip was a days outing to the German Traun. The river is such an example of a prime trout water: gin clear water, strong fish and solitude. I need to capture this moment...My buddies were especially impressed by the strength of the fish in this river. I really enjoyed the long runs the fish takes. Simply addicting!
Enjoy the pictures!
