Deja Vu...

I've said it before. The past several years the weather is simply not working for me when I plan a fishing trip.

Spring has been very sunny and dry so far. In fact, way too sunny and dry. It's now almost summer and we're now in a rainy period. But not when I try to plan a fishing trip for gawd's sake!

It doesn't look hopeless, but it's certainly not the type of weather I want prior to a fishing trip. I want at least a good week of sunny and dry weather so the rivers clear up. Now it has been raining showers on and off for the past week and it looks like it will stay this way at least a week.

I'll check the locals in a few days to see if this rainy period means high and murky streams. Jeez!...


Update 17 june 2011:
Yes, we cancelled our trip. The weather forecast for next week doesn't show improvements, rather it looks even worse... This sucks big time!

Update 19 june 2011:
Yes, the rainy season is in full swing as it seems...
I guess we should kill our time until the sun comes back with tying flies.

Update 31 aug 2011:

As it seems this summer was the wettest summer since the Dutch weather has been registered in 1906. Well, it sure looks like weather extremities are following each other very fast recently. Not a good sign...
