Mickfly - thanks for the info. I plan on fishing pretty much nonstop from my arrival on Sunday afternoon through Saturday. Hopefully I won't be burned out by the time my dad arrives...

Well I started this thread a month ago with the anticapation of throwing a fly at LMF for the first time. Here is my promised report; It was great ! I did not see or catch a lot of fish but I DID catch my first Rainbow on a barbless hook top water fly on the Evening hole ! It was an overall beautiful and sometimes humbling experience . What a wonderful sport, just you and the fish. Presenting different flys and watching the trout stalk and follow it then decide if they want it was so cool. Of course many fish were caught down the road at the cold hole / live bait area but I did not fish those areas because thats not why I was there. Thanks to everyone who helped me prepare for the trip..and thanks to my guide Jesse for being a great teacher. In my mind it couldnt have been more fulfilling. I plan to go back as soon as I can. I am Hooked !

Bill that's awesome thanks for the report! Glad to hear you hooked up. It's such a beautiful river but catching fish makes it that much better!
