How to fish this small river with high banks.
Hi you guys and gals.
Here is the scenario.- Small river, 3-8 meters wide.
- Runs slowly.
- Often very calm weather and you can see the bottom.
- The river is not deep, from 1 feet to maybe 7 feet in the deeper canals.
- The banks are high, sometimes it's lika a V with the river at the bottom.
- You can hardly wade in the river because of the deep canals.
- You need to walk beside the river at least 1 meter from the river bank, so you are higher than the river.
- Often when I walk beside the river to some fishing spot up river I see the V from fleeing trout and I also see the trout running.
- There are very few high trees along the bank and very few about a man hight.
Some say you can only fish the river with a dry fly, upstream when it's windy and the surface of the river is stirred up.
Sorry I don't have a picture!
How should I fish this, Tenkara maybe?
Give me your ideas.
