Fishing


Remember the other day when I said watch the CMS reports for your area? Well I meant it. I was lucky enough to spend the day prowling a river with an old friend of mine, and we had the entire thing to ourselves, and it was awesome...


We had hoped for some serious dry fly action but the trout weren't going to cooperate, so of course we went nymphing and the results were nothing less than extraordinary!!! BIG FISH EATING BIG BUGS! I have a feeling that the dry fly action is happening over there, our timing was a little off  but I am confidant that it is happening, and will continue to happen for quite a while!

I don't plan on being on the lakes for a couple of days, but I spoke with a gaggle of khaki ninjas last evening who had spent the day on one of our local lakes. They weren't in the best of spirits, they had shared the lake with 40 other boats! WOW! 40! They said the fishing sucked, geez I wonder why!? Maybe if you roll up on a lake and there is like a buzillion other people there, you might consider going else where?

I just checked the flow report and it looks like I will be headed out this evening for some action!

Luvs you all,

Fishing


Ok here we go!  Believe it or not people there is some darn fine fishing happening right now. The past two weeks I have been out and about, here and there and have been privy to some pretty fun sh*t.


In case you didn't know already, the lakes down here are doing just fine...


Saw a friend of mine lay waste to an army of rainbows yesterday. Another beautiful rainy day with swallows getting down to a meal of midges. The hatch was strong, green chrome and tiny!

So anyways, the lakes are in full effect and if you get the chance you should get out there and have some fun. There is opportunity to fish just about any way you please, from hanging Cronies to creep'n dragons it seems that if you pay attention out there you will catch a fish. We managed to sight fish a 14 inch Rainbow on a size 14 hot-butt caddis, it was rad!

Ummmmmm, the rivers are high, and sometime all you can do is dance...

I went fishing on a river last week, before things got really wet out there and it was educational. Water was cold clear and high, but there were signs that the big creepers had been moving... We managed to hook some meat, even caught us a fish on a dry fly, but I also seen me a shark eat an octopus...

Watch the CMS report, good things are coming!
Keep dry, and for the love of all that is awesome, don't forget to have some fun!

Watch out for the old fella in the silver pram, he's kinda crusty.
