Poor spring fishing in river Glomma

 The air temperature at 8 degrees, but due to ice-melting the temperature in water at freezing 1,4 degrees!
Hard condition for a fly fisherman and insect life!
This is extreme fishing as when wading I had to look over my shoulder all the time for big drifting ice-flakes. The size of these would easily knock me over if I was hit.
