Had my sz 2 closures setting on the back of the car and pretty sure I ran over them my self at work. My assistant manager found them and knew they had to be mine. When I went back and got them all the dumbbell eyes where knocked out. Catslayer had just got a new rod for Christmas and wanted on some fish but we were stuck with sz6 only. We got started and found fish the dinks would not stay off the smaller flys at all. Thank goodness I noticed Didja getny across the river he waved us over when we realized who we were. He had some extra bigger clousers he ties sweet pattern at that. Only took a few pics they were too on to mess with it. I finally turned the go pro on and took a few stills. Catslayer broke in the new rod very well needless to say. This has been one of the best winters of fishing in some time. [Linked Image]

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

Another good session!

Wading out there is a little sketchy at the higher flows, but the fish dont seem to mind:)

It was an awesome afternoon! Low 70s, light wind and lights out fishing. 30+ fish day. Robert, glad you and Catslayer showed up to share the experience. I was happy to help you guys out with flies.....don't leave flies on the trunk and drive!

I just can't seem to catch the right day for Stripers. Maybe one of these days... Glad you guys hit 'em. Nice looking fish.

Yes Capt. They are some af the fattest striper Ive ever caught. They definitely have days that are on fire for the big fish and some you cant keep the little dinks off. Didja hitting them now I got stuck with stocker trout. They were on fire at least. I have a feeling he is hammering them perfect weathers for them.

Great looking fish! The river levels have making hard to get into the waters around here. I was wondering what the CSI was when you were out there?

Thanks....

Cfs bigpaddle?650 if so I have fished 1800-2200 where we are fishing and the fish are stacked on top of each other in one of three places. They are fish in a barrel at that point its just a very scetchy wade. Yet oddly I think it is scarier at 650 because you think you can push it more. 2000 you know for sure where you can and cant cross lol. We just take our time its still way to cold for my warm blooded Texan butt to swim. Just have to watch generation schedule there is one up on swpa web site. Just know its not always accurate.

Robert,

Wow...I didn't realize my post was that full of grammaticals. Yes CFS...thank you for the update. Keeping a keen eye on the flows...been a while since we've had this wet of a fall and winter. It will be interesting to see what the Sping holds for us.

Thanks again!
