When fishing the HOFSA in Iceland it is common to have a guide climb steep banks over pools of water and search the water for salmon. They have a trained eye and can spot the fish underwater. It was not until my 7th day on the river that I could sight an underwater fish. Then, the fisherman actually casts to the sighted fish. Cheating? No, not in a place were one fishes almost 4 miles of big water for 11 hours in one day. The best fishermen catch 4 - 7 fish a day. Like my father says: "It's called fishing, not catching!"
