I think I have to declare an interest.... think that pic was taken on the day we three (Sandy, Mike & I) had a cast 'somewhere' on the Don so I shouldn't answer.

Lovely bit of water though :z16

Come to think of it, was a really nice day too :cool:

Interesting. Did you catch anything in the tree Mike?
Do you normally fish in trees?
Will you fish in any old tree or is that one special?
So many questions about this exciting new "branch" of the sport....

No, not Kildrummy this time I'm afraid Noel :z6

Ah ..... the joys of a rising trout and not looking where one's backcast is going :z4

One major disadvantage of the steeple cast ..... is that when you do hook a tree, your fly is a lot higher up the tree :z17

................................. If you have a tree behind you.................you should really be using a roll cast :z4 :z4 :z4
