Da kommt Wehmut auf. Schöne aufnahmen. Gut gemacht. 👍

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Vielen Dank, Iris.

Thanks for the tip about the moon. I never knew that. You should attach the reel to a rod when winding the line back on. It makes it so much easier and you can keep some tension on the line while winding.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Will try that next time, sir. All the best and cheers.

[@gordondavies7773]

Run the line rhrough the first rod ring. Much easier

[@raftonpounder6696]

@@gordondavies7773 yes. I forgot to mention that!

[@GrumpyAndCricket]

Great outing! Now Lunch! Tight Lines!

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir. And next time we're going to catch something, I'm sure.

Hello Dietrich, great day to spend fishing and what a lovely place to fish for awhile, so moon and sun in the sky is no good for fishing, great video and greetings from NZ,, Tony.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Tony. Would be interesting to know if you've made similar observations regarding Moon and Sun. All the best, cheers and greetings from Ireland.

Mes meilleurs vœux à vous et vos compagnons de pèche

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Merci, Chris. A Happy New Year and Tight Lines to you too.

[@garrydogireland5961]

Lovely setup Dietrich, the reel will sound great when you get a good run of a fish on it 👌👌👌

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Am very happy to have that rod and reel and can't wait for the first of March. Cheers.

[@oldmechanicguy]

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir. The first of March is the day.

I think you are right Dietrich about the sun and moon showing themselves at the same time I never caught anything when that happened. Looking forward to seeing you fish with your new fly rod , I have one as well a Redington made in the UK haven't tried it yet it's a 5/6 weight 9 foot so I can use larger flies as I tend to favor them the smallest I fish is size 14 . If I can't see them very well then I don't tie them or fish them just old age , taken care my friend.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Jim. It is surely amazing how one could tie flies without glasses once and today it is difficult making the smaller ones without magnification. Take care and all the best.

Hi Dietrich. Happy new yesr and tight lines in 2024. As I recollect that Hardy Fibatube rod is fibreglass - you are a real traditionalist Dietrich I wish you success with that. Best Phil

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Phil, and a happy new year to you too. It is a fibreglass rod and I can't wait for the first of March to go fishing with it. Take care and a good 2024 season, cheers.

[@gordondavies7773]

We used to use Fibatube blanks to make bespoke rods. I have a 6 foot small stream rod with the but ring on the top section, with a second shorter handle. I coukd change over when fishing really overgrown sections.

The Blue stacks are looking very white

They looked splendid, Rossa. However, it is over now, we are back to the rain and the wind. Greetings from Inver, Co. Donegal.
