Sunday funday

O.k., so I guess we kind of tried. But to be honest: not very hard at all. There were so many things last sunday that felt more important than a desperate attempt to pull a pike out of the murky waters of the Kromme Rijn, that we hardly bothered to give it a serious go.

The weather was great. Below zero, but sunny, clear, dry and calm. We tend to call this 'crisp' or 'honest' weather, as opposed to the regular grey, humid and windy shite we have to cope with here in Holland almost all winter. Beautiful weather like this makes you want to enjoy and do other things than you planned to:

And then of course there were those 3 rods we wanted to test. What a treat is was to be out there on such a beautiful day and to have fun with such nice material! Different rods, different lines, different streamers, mixing them, discussing the findings, making conclusions, I mean, just look at this guy having the ultimate fly fishing fun without catching anything:

And although we still cannot reveal the rods we will use during the tournament, this last sunday funday sure narrowed things down to some really awesome sticks. To be continued........
