The weather this week has been extraordinary, every day is really hot – more St Tropez than Norway! Not that this is a problem. The river has started to drop but today I saw as many running fish as any day so far.
I have noticed that the fish on the Gaula seem to take better if the water is steady rather than fluctuating wildly in height.
We have had to adjust to fishing mainly at night to get the best results however. As it never gets dark this is no great hardship and it is much more pleasant to fish away from the heat of the day.
Two fish caught so far today. Ken had a nice grilse in Bridge pool and Dominic a super 8kilo fish from Stadion pool.
