Adventures of fly angler in Poland

One friend on Facebook recommended me to go to Czarny Dunajec in the middle section. This part of the river is not very popular, actually I didn't meet any other anglers that day. The river was a bit dirty after rain, with colored water. I fished only with short nymphing method, due to water conditions.  The fish was almost in every pocket. I walked downstream from the bridge where I parked my car. I had 40 or 50 hits on my nymph in 3 hours. The fish was mostly small, but of diverse types:  brown trout, grayling, chub.  The best action was in the morning. During middle of the day, fish became more lazy. When I was about to leave, I hooked biggest grayling of the day. This fish made my day. Very beautiful. I didn't take many photos of my catch, but there was big number of fish caught and released. One of the most productive fishing sessions ever. The photos are a bit gloomy, but in reality it looks better.

I made a cast into the spot, and the fish took immediately. First cast, first fish, what a luck!  Due to weekend, there were quite a lot of recreational kayakers. But they didn't interrupt my fishing. I fished this eddie from different sides, from upstream and from downstream. It looks like fishy spot.  I caught few graylings in it. Which is good for Raba. Graylings are not so common there, compared to brown trout in numbers. The place was very productive. I caught many graylings. Later in the evening, I hooked a bigger fish. It was a rainbow trout. The fish made few speedy runs up and down , and jumped few times. Very st...
