New season, underway.

Well the 2014 season is underway, but with the rivers up with flood water. not had many reports in of sewin off the river Towy only a few lost big fish, it is a good time of year for the big sewin to put in a show.  plus have not had the time to get out and have a fish. just been very busy tying for customers so making the most of it, till the river comes down ti a fly fishing level.
