I'm impressed with your confidence .... experience has taught me to never
brag, before the fact, about fishing or dawgs, let alone both in one

Snagging is unethical

Reminds me of a joke....

Two mangy bulls are standing on a hill overlooking a herd of cows, one
an old bull...let's call him Teddy, and a younger bull...let's call him
Bill. Billy Bull says to Teddy Bull, "Heh, heh..let's run on down there
an' nail us an inter..., er, cow..." Teddy Bull says, "You-a youngstas
don't know anything...let's walk down, have a Chivas or twelve, and
drow...er, nail 'em all..."

There were actually *three* mangy bulls, and the third mangy bull - that'd be
Dicky Bull - sez to the others "Nah [hic] Let's have a coupla more beers [hic]
then have the help drive us [hic] down to them cows, and I'll shoot 'em all in
the face..."

/daytripper ()


Well, actually, there were FOUR mangy bul...OK, so it was three bulls
and Davey Steer...so, anyways, Davey sez to the others, "Aw, guys, can't
we just stay here and keep getting stoned...my pecker hasn't worked in
years and it's not fair for anyone to have fun when I can't...it'll be
so cool - we can rag on Georgey Bull and whine about how unfair
everything is..." Just then, Billy Bull yelled, "Dicky, dove!" Dicky
Bull drunkenly wheeled and...well, Teddy, Dicky, and Billy fired up the
Weber and had a nice big steak dinner, walked on down, and had some fun.

I just got back to Stanley and Willi's on the plane to Denver.

We caught so many big bows that we got jaded. By the end we were
estimating fish we'd hooked and were playing at 16 inches, when in
reality they were pushing or exceeding 20.

It was challenging and rewarding. You can't ask more of a fishing trip.

Glad you had a good time. For some reason I thought Willi didn't like
stillwater fishing but guess I was wrong. Personally, I've caught my
biggest trout from lakes. Times on stillwaters when the action available
rises above trolling a bugger can match any stream fishing for challenge ...
a good gulper day on Hebgen is as "challenging and rewarding" as any,
anywhere in fly fishing, for instance and some damn good fishermen that
haven't learned this particular game, leave skunked and shaken after casting
to hundreds of rising fish.


Speaking of lakes .... I delayed my departure a week to do some painting
around here for my bride, so I'm still in Arnoldland. But one of my
intended fishing holes this summer is 'Rattlesnake Lake' in Jellystone ....
as I remember, your picture shows you in a tube, is one needed to fish the
lake well? The "tyranny of stuff" is getting me down as I pack and try
and decide what pieces of my bloated equipment hoard to take, what to leave
behind, ..... a light weight tube is still in the inbetween, 'maybe,' pile.

We were catching most of our fish wading from shore, fishing nymphs from
one to five feet deep, letting the wind drag take the flies through the
weeds. Trolling or stripping is boring by comparison, but that's
apparently the standard procedure.

We also had fun fishing from the dam, just as a change of pace.

IMHO, you need a tube to fish Rattlesnake effectively. I caught that
huge rainbow by trolling a damsel nymph. With the lessons I've learned
from this recent stillwater trip, I'd try something different.
Stillwater fishing is just as challenging and interesting as stream
fishing, and I think Willi likes it just fine.
