Achalabrookies, by Humberto Zilocchi, is a blog on fly fishing for brook trout in "Pampa de Achala" Córdoba Argentina, as well as comments and reflections on other experiences in fly fishing, fly casting techniques and fly tying.
Before it was more difficult to take good photos. Today with the technological advance it is common to see great shots even from amateurs like me.
In my particular case, I miss those photos that I took as best I could and perfection didn’t matter so much. A good trout was remembered sometimes in blurry images (almost the same as our memory) but with great documentary value.
Antes era mas difìcil sacar buenas fotos. Hoy con el avance tecnològico es comùn ver estupendas tomas incluso de aficionados como yo.
En mi caso particular, extraño aquellas fotos que tomaba como podìa y no importaba tanto la perfecciòn. Una buena trucha quedaba en el recuerdo a veces en imàgenes borrosas (casi igual que en nuestra memoria) pero con un gran valor documental.
We do not have Grayling (Tìmalo) in these latitudes but we do have Pejerrey, a beautiful fish that offers great challenges for those who want to fly fish them. I caught this one in the photo at the San Roque dam in Villa Carlos Paz
No tenemos Grayling (Tìmalo) en estas latitudes pero tenemos Pejerrey, un bello pez que ofrece grandes desafìos para quièn quiera pescarlos con mosca. Este de la foto lo pesquè en el dique San Roque de Villa Carlos Paz
Reading Skues, and with a lot of observation of course, I was able to better understand what is in fact and clearly obvious: What happens underwater is less evident to us than what happens on its surface. Therefore I consider (without being exclusive or «purist») that fishing with nymphs (without a strike indicator) is infinitely more challenging than fishing with dry flies.
Leyendo a Skues, y con mucha observaciòn claro està, supe entender mejor lo que es de hecho y a todas luces una obviedad: Es menos evidente para nosotros lo que pasa bajo el agua que lo que pasa en su superficie. Por lo tanto considero (sin ser excluyente ni «purista») que pescar con ninfas (sin indicador de pique o boya) es infinitamente mas desafiante que pescar con moscas secas.
Autumn started in the best way in the Los Reartes river, fresh and sunny days, transparent waters and quite a good flow. Also the rainbow population seems to be in good shape.
El otoño comenzò de la mejor manera en el rìo de Los Reartes, dias frescos y soleados, aguas transparentes y bastante buen caudal. Ademas su poblaciòn de arcoiris parece estar en buena forma.
