A new season as a bailiff on the Kelvin

well after last year and the accident i had around June I'm looking forward to a new season as last one was as dim as they get with most of it spent in a wheelchair , its time to get back on the water and also this year I'm offering my help alongside the bailiff squad on the Kelvin as its something Ive wanted to do for some time and have always been vocal about this matter in the past ,,,so its only fair i try out my hand at it to see just how hard a job these guys can have on the river Kelvin.
i have 10 days to wait before the trout season begins and i really cant wait for it to come around as i love fishing the Kelvin for trout as i enjoy the light tackle and getting in close and personal with the river wild life as i love wading from pool to pool ,,,but this year i know will be different as i don't have any confidence in wading as my injuries are still healing and I'm sure it would only take a small twist to set me back along time ,,,so easy it goes is the strategy I'm going with ,,,and as for early season salmon fishing in the Kelvin ,,well thats hard going at the best of times ,so Ive not been out much as wading is all important unless I'm spinning which is my second choice of method as i just like the whole idea of the double hander when i get the chance to use it on the kelvin as it gives me better control over my flee and allows me to present it better and in the right location which is all important if you are going to getting among the fish.

well guys good luck for the season 2011 and lets all hope we get that dream fish from our home rivers and may the trend of urban river continue to get better and better with each and every year...............
