| Late afternoon/Evening on the river Decided to go for a stroll down the river, just happened to have my rod and waders.  Part of the river runs parallel to a golf course and as I haven`t been there for a while, I decided to give it a try. I worked upstream with a dry ( Olive Klink and white F fly #14s), picking off the odd small trout here and there for about a mile. Then changed over to a couple of spiders and fished back down past the golf ball tree to the gates. INSIDE THE GOLF BALL TREE.    The record for the tree stands at 23 golf balls.Today I got 11.     All in all, a nice wee evening out. Peter      |

| Re: Late afternoon/Evening on the river Hi Justin, the wild life here is great, but I unfortunately deleted the one I wanted to post of a vixen and her cubs at the water`s edge. The camera I`m using for these is a compact Fuji WP Z (waterproof to 4 metres), my wife bought me for my birthday. I haven`t used the underwater function yet, maybe in June in the Med. Peter |

| Re: Late afternoon/Evening on the river Hi pete, you got some great water by u , a couple of trips down there sell them golf balls ticket paid for. The good thing about being on a river is the wildlife u see its abit more urban were i fish, yet ive still seen otters , kingfishers, dippers, plenty of mink,and even barn owl when fishing late for bass. Good luck on your friday session with your mate. Jeff |

| Re: Late afternoon/Evening on the river Thanks Cockoo, just lucky I guess to be in the right place at the right time, but cheers for your comments. Peter.Hi Justin, SLRs are excellent, I used the Nikon D5000 for some of the snow shots. Hope you do post some photos. Peter Hi Jeff, River wildlife really is a bonus, it`s amazing even as you say in urban areas too. I think I`ll suggest the golf course for the venue on Friday, as I noticed quite a few deeper pools last night. . Peter |
