It's hopper season up here. I just tie on a size 14 orange or

hopper, half stimulator). Nothing special, just hopper fishing.

Losing gear ? I don't know what you mean. The only thing in my
hands is my fly rod, everything else has a place either in a
pocket or on the lanyard. If I'm going to be up there all day
with a lunch and a water bottle I'll wear my vest.


I'm referring to those hoppers at the end of your line.
Fishing them dry would get them up above the obstructions.
My problem is that I tend to fish everything wet. ...


Dude, if you think it's worthwhile to listen to Rush Limbaugh
for anything other than comic relief then fishing wet flies
is the least of your problems.
