first evening paddle of the summer!
Well Glen & I have just completed the first evening paddle of the year. A river run from Arley to Bewdley. We were on the river for 70 minutes. It was a disturbing paddle for me as I had the use of Glen’s Dagger Legend. It was much tippier and spinnier than my old Mad River Explorer. I am pleased to report no drama in Eymore Rapids – I did shout “I’m still alive!” Once they were over. The evening was beautiful, warm and still. Loads of fish rising to grab flies hatching. We saw some anglers who were waiting for the season to open at midnight.
All in all a great paddle in great company. Stewey.
