!!!

We gotta get out...when is your next window?? How about Father's Day
Weekend? I get a free day out to play.

How many dozen do ya have tied up?

I must have a million or two right in the trees in the back yard. Sounds
like the spaceships in "War of the Worlds" out there 14 hours a day.
Billions and billions...

Headed out to fish today, despite lack of promise in the day. It had
rained for
about 48 hours straight, sometimes pretty hard, so I figured the water
would be
a mess. The Tulpehocken was beyond discolored, it was running high, hard
and
muddy, with large tree parts moving downstream with it. A quick retreat
was
made to the Local Trickle, where I figured I could at least avoid
drowning. It,
too, was murky and running fairly high, but I get few free days to fish,
so off
I went. Shortly into it, I noticed the infrequent rise by a fish here and
there. I tried a few items that seemed to match the bugs I saw: Slate
Drakes,
little Olives, green caddis, no luck at all. The fish kept coming up, at
odd
intervals. I swatted a Cicada off my hat as I trudged though the woods.
Freed
another from my hair and picked two more off my vest before the lightbulb
went
off.....they're tagging Cicadas! Dumped the contents of vest onto a grassy
area, finally locating the small tub I stashed 3 fake Cicadas in. I picked
one
which I had originally thought had too much orange. Lobbing the
monstrosity
near a sunken log, the thing floated about two feet and Wham!!, a solid
little
brown. Back upstream to a larger fish that had shunned me an hour before.
Second cast was rewarded with a 14 inch fat brown. To make a long story
short(er), I went upstream and took about 15 trout, all on two Cicada
imitations(lost the first one). Most were still floating when the trout
hit,
but two or three fish took the sunken fly. A peculiar fishing day, but a
good
one, nonetheless.
