Hey everyone,

A big Hi from South Wales. Member of the previous board, and looking forward to posting a few small stream memories again :smile:

Here are a few images from my latest outing...

A view from high above. Somewhere, there’s a stream down there…

…and far below. Somewhere, there’s a footpath up there…

The wilderness is unkempt and dark…

…but with runs to die for. My own piece of paradise.

Spots seeming to glow red, these wild trout are worth more than jewels…

…all falling to the X-Caddis.

Heptagenids thrive, in spite of past pollution…

Freshly fallen. Such wildness is refreshing…

The day ends, but the memory of that last fight is as fresh as can be…

A view from the stove. Still smiling, and looking down into the valley below, a coffee is sunk before returning home.
