That is dedication and determination for you.

Ernst, along with his friends Andrew and Jen, was staying at our Cliff Top Cabin where we had had a short tying session the night before.

Determined to get the copper bead-head nymph right Ernst is so engrossed in the tying job, his fresh, done to order, breakfast remains untouched.

As you can see below, he also had some great fishing times over the three days.

Here, regular Red Tagger Gerald is giving his favourite lightweight rod a real workout.

Right in the middle of the grasshopper season he had his best trip (fish wise) ever and totalled something like 20 to hand over two days, with as many more to the fly. Well done mate!
