The Daiwa Kiyose in Australia
First trip out with the Daiwa Kiyose 33SF on a cool windy day. Line Tenkarabum hand tied fluoro heavy 10',6x tippet, brown bead head nymph and an indicator. A bit of a challenge to use the light gear in wind, but ohhh so worth it! One nice rainbow trout later, time to go home.
The Kiyose will get more exercise now our season has kicked off.
Thanks Chris

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.
The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.
