Steeple Casting Frustrations:
A few years back in a corner of the Kuratau River, this fly drove me to drink. A Bow sitting behind a trailing blackberry bush hit this fly no less than 10 times, and each time I failed to connect. The reason being, yip you guessed it, during the casting process I clipped a tree behind me snapping the hook off at the gap.
Lesson learnt: check your fly often, and change it if the point has been damaged!
Ps: yes I did land the fish first cast after changing fly.
