Fun Morning

Fun couples of hours today. Fish kept moving away from the trout emerger (huevos). I ended up taking it off. Went with Olive Or Black RS2 variations in 20 and 22, and any mysis. Caught quite a few the last hour. An old guy came by and snapped a photo of me and the last fish I caught. 2 hours, I may have hooked a dozen and landed 7. Oh yeah. Hooked a few Brookies in the 10 to 12 inch range.

DUBBN, Howdy;

Good to see you are getting back into the swing of things once again.
Also, good to see your ever smiling face and a decently sized trout in
your grasp.

Happy Holidays from the both of us!

hank & Rascal (oorp!)

I've missed seeing pictures of your hat. :D

PS - Give me a call, if you need someone to hold your net. ;) :D


Holy Cow! Those are some gorgeous fish!!! Healthy and spectacular color. I'm glad to see you getting out again, but I wish you had kept the snow. It arrived here yesterday. We have Lake Effect snow warnings all day. Some areas could get a foot of snow.

What did you use for the eyes on your mysis shrimp? Is that rubber leg material?

Another thing that I've used for mysis eyes that works is .020 mono, burned gently at the ends. Also, a small hunk of .020 lead with black paint applied to the ends.

Wayne, won't the damp waders hanging in the garage with the damp spot under them be a tip off ???
