Greetings, comrades. Not much news from the front, I'm afraid. Was down at a rather famous river two weeks ago in search of large brown trout. Not a bite all day. One old fella managed a 1.8 kilo fish on a fly just on dark, but we struck out big time. Went home and earned ourselves a hangover instead with beer and port and loud music. Insert homo jokes here. Those interested can google 'Ljungan' (the area), as well as 'havsöring' (sea trout), or 'lax' (salmon). As I understand it the record for that river is a 29kg salmon, and a 25kg specimen was pulled out earlier this year.
In other news, due to my faithful Garmont boots biting the dust this year, I've been borrowing boots on trips. I did however find a decent pair of boots today which should keep me dry until I can afford something better.
$12. Sweet, eh.
