It is very wet and windy outside, so I have decided to stay home and clean my fly reel.
I repaired some paint loss with touch up paint. Although It is a futile attempt as the paint keep chipping off, I guess it is better than doing nothing. After having several touch up jobs in the past, it is getting hard to see where the original paint is and isn't now.
After catching fish years, the gear has been very much worn out, and I have been thinking how to replace it.
Well, as Buddhists say, everything has its end, but hopefully I can squeeze a few more years out of my old reel before it reaches the fly reel nirvana.
昨日は、暖かくていい天気で、午後にちょっと釣りに出かけました。
今日は、朝から雨。釣りに行こかどうか悩んでいる内に、雨も風も強くなって来たので、リールの掃除でもしながら家で待機。
夕方までに風が弱まれば行こうかなあ、といった感じです。
We went fishing yesterday afternoon, and we got a few fish.
Mike found this little bait floating on the water.
Late evening on the river yesterday
