This is the date eagerly awaited by many anglers, who can now fish a variety of waters that have been previously closed to them during the preceding spawning season, and yes I am one of those anglers.
In preparation of this day, via the internet, I have obtained my 'Whole Season Licence'. I have also researched areas of new water to fish within an hour to an hour and a half drive away from my home, and have prepared all of my equipment, rods, reels, line, leaders, flies, waders, boots, vest, jacket , polaroids and hat ready enabling me to simply pick up, place in the boot of the car and dash from home early on Thursday morning to be at my predetermined spot - yes, I am more than a little excited . . . . . . .
You see, apart from the eager anticipation of what the days fishing events might bring, I am assured of a few things: a degree of solitude only to be interrupted by brief encounters from like minded individuals, a good quality cigar (Cohiba Ciglo III), good single malt whisky (Glenmorangie) and the knowledge that the time I spend along the river is not coveted in guilt. I have earned this opportunity through my endeavours in a succesful business life, and this is just one of my many intangible rewards I shall continue to enjoy as a result.
Whatever your outcome might be this opening day, remember a successful man never feels guilty when he spends his time fishing on a river!
Tight lines.
