Come to think about how easily one jumps to conclusions. If that Klinkhamer would catch fish for him where others failed, some would attribute this to the hackling, others to the intricacies of the body, another to sudden change in weather factors, or something or the other. He might have changed tippet when he changed fly, he could be casting from a slightly different angle or one or more of several other factors might have come into play. All too often we pick just one as the explanation.

Just sayin'

Precisely, Stefan.
