Costa Blanca's River Jucar almost like the Arctic

TEULADA-MORAIRA FISHING CLUB’S last outing was to Section B1 of the River Jucar. This section is on a bend on the river and in winter the draw for places can be all-important, not so much for where the fish might be but for comfort. One side of the bend receives no sunshine and depending on the direction of the wind it can be bitterly cold, and so it proved that day.
It was a chilly 8 degrees and some members were in the shade, directly in the path of a fairly stiff breeze and they said it felt as though they were fishing in the Arctic. However, everyone managed to catch something and when the match ended there were no empty nets and several handsome carp weighing over three kilos had been caught.
“We are a very friendly club and are always happy to welcome new members,” the club secretary said.
