Chanel Flies to Fishing

Recently I am so busy,even could not go to sport. Then I really miss the days in my campus life when I could do any kinds of sports in my spare time. But I bet most people often ignore one kind of sport–fishing. Actually, going wild fishing to feel the natural beauty is a wonderful way to relax. Coco Chanel was also a keen angler who honed her skills while dating the Duke of Westminster in the 20s.

Chanel, who lived at the Paris Ritz for more than 35 years, once struck up a conversation with the owner, Charles Ritz, about her inaugural fly fishing trip to the river Alta in Norway with the Duke. “Never having fished before, I was most anxious,” she admitted. “She need not have worried,” wrote Charles Ritz in his autobiography. “One of the Duke’s friends, who always joined him on the Alta, was a famous fly fisher. Coco explained her problems to him and received the soundest possible advice suggesting that she should draw inspiration from the sky. ‘When it’s clear and bright, tie on a Silver Doctor. When dark and overcast, use a Black Doctor’ … As a result, on several occasions she landed more salmon than His Grace.”
So with this background and the cash cow Karl Lagerfeld, there is not great surprise to the advent of this Chanel fly-fishing rod for $20,000. The Chanel rod is scrupulously tied with monochrome Chanel flies and renowned CC logo on its gossamer wings. The flying rod comes packed in a quilted black leather box. I really adore the CC logo hook, so cute and stylish. Karl, as expected, deserves to be called the commercial racketeer. To him, we all have a mix of love and hate. If you still ample cash flow, then you are fully capable of participation in some luxury goods consumption. At last, advance to wish all of you happy National Day and just go fishing with this stylish fly-fishing rod if you can.
