The last fishing trip of the year with the guys from the flyfishing club was upon us.
Location was a nature preserve were by experiment flyfishing was allowed with
a special permit.
Pike fishing was generally not my thing but it was more of social thing thus I
went along for the fun of it.

While the rest of the guys boasted heavy pike outfits capable of throwing halve
chickens through the water I used a trusty glass four weight.
To be honest the water did not look inviting, visibility very poor and no life
to be seen.

The weather looked nice at the start but just as we mentioned this it
started to rain and it did not end until sunset.
One of us soon had a pike attacking the lure, I spotted the pike as it
charged for a second time and it was a decent one.

The first spot did not yield more action for us.
Our guide of the day decided to relocate to a sure shot spot further
downstream.
The relocation was a good shot as two guys caught pike quite early on.
Even yours truly caught a pike or rather pikelette regarding its size.

And again there were a few misses so fish where present.
At sunset the skies cleared for a moment and the sun actually showed itself
for a brief moment.
Everybody was busy trying to hook those fish that missed bites earlier on.
I was lucky enough to hook one of them, fortunately a lot larger than my first fish.

We ended the day with everybody catching a pike, not a bad closure of the season.
