When you can observe the fish in clear water less than one foot deep, it’s exciting just watching them, never mind fishing for them.
Of course, it goes without saying that it is a challenge.
For one, it means that if you can see the fish then they can see you.
This morning, I had a bank behind me with lots of vegetation and trees all around so, being careful with movement, I was fine.
That’s why choice of swim is important and you have to make sure that you have a background to blend in with, as opposed to standing out on on the skyline.
