The cool weather prompted me to make the short drive to the closest
thing we have up here to a spring creek. The trout were co-operative.
They ate basically anything I threw at them from Pass Lakes to
X-Caddis to CDC and Elk. Only naturals I saw were caddisflies. Noticed
some green sedges hatching/hovering but most of the flies were smaller
and tan.

Here's a little taste:

You know, ONE of these days you are bound to post a report that is not way
cool.......but it hasn't happened yet.


It helps not being tired enough to sleep until 2a.m.. And that the
Science Channel runs old shows late at night. I now know enough about
the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter to build and launch my own.


How the hell did you hold that camera?

The camera wasn't hard, it was getting the right length of line out on
the rod hand to hit the rising fish. And of course landing them meant
turning off the camera and sticking it my wader pocket.
