Super great time...love those Chrystal clear creeks. And meeting J-Moe was extra special after reading all about his exploits on this forum. One heck of a fly fisherman and fly maker. Of course it always makes for a good fishing adventure fishing with Banker. Thanks guys for the outstanding memories.

Thanks, as always, Chuck. It was a great day and I'm glad to finally meet Rick. Rick has been fly fishing for many many more years than me. It was great hearing all his stories about fly fishing different parts of the world, stories about the history of flies and some of the great catches he has had in his life. If he would have been keeping records all his life there wouldn't be any room in the record books for me.

Awesome guys glad y'all had a great time congrats Jamie on your records what fly did you use Clayton, I caught the record Rio on a fly I call the Crawfish Briminator. I caught another one that was 9.25 inches on a yellow Llano bug. I caught a ton of fish but those were the only 2 over 1/2 lb. Thanks for the congrats. There were a lot of fish on beds. I was able to get the Rio to take a fly while guarding it's bed with it's smaller mate. I wasn't able to get any of the other species on beds to take a fly. They were too busy chasing off all the other smaller fish.

As always a super post Chuck! As you say fishing with friends is hard to beat! Both J-Moe and Catyakker are on a record role! Great seeing those fly rod records going up! Always nice J-Moe seeing a Rio especially the bigger one taking a fly while guarding a nest. Good job guys. Side Note: What weight fly rods were used?

Thanks Laker. I never thought about records until I started getting guided by Banker. It just gives me a little extra incentive to get out on the water most every day instead of sitting by the TV watching old westerns. Retirement can get boring without something to get off my duff for. I started out using a 5 Wt TFO rod many years ago, then went down to 3 Wt TFO, then a 2 Wt TFO. Now I am stuck on a 2 Wt Glass CGR lined with 3 Wt line to to cast a larger variety of fly sizes. I just love the bend of a Glass rod verses Graphite. Just wish I could justify the cost of Bamboo.

Thanks Curtis for the reply! Both Jamie and Rick are two "SUPER" anglers. They can really throw the flies with pin point accuracy. Fishing and simply enjoying the outdoors is what it is all about! A record just adds icing on the cake!
