Make sure you allow plenty of time. I got the condensed version during the drive
from Cabin Creek to the Yellowstone and it was still a ton of information, who
knows how long the unabridged would take. g

CC, You know that I'll dang near lose my voice with a captive audience
(g). Especially when I've got to shout over the roar of the Defender!

I think I've ridden in the Defender in Wyoming, Montana, and Florida
btw.

When I rode in it, I just let Charlie do the talking and (on the way home)
took a little nap. :-)

Almost NM and CO too. Next time I won't wimp out. How does the SJ fish in mid
May? I'll be back in Taos for the last 2 weeks in May and then on to Utah for
another couple, but I may try and get to NM early for some FF - before instead
of after this time. g

Aw, it's a nice quiet ride - it was the boredom that put you to sleep. g BTW,
that stream we visited is fishing real well these days, wish it could have been
better weather when you were here.

The cool thing about Mid May is that the river might be going 5000cfs
and there's hardly anyone around then. Wading is tough or impossible.

It's a great time to float! C'mon down.

You say that like it's a bad thing. :-)


LOL, not at all, and I've spent enough time throwing around little bits
of feathers to appreciate this facet of the culture; although I sometimes
suspect that a fly fisherman would consider a pie recipe vague unless it
included specific information on fly tying.

Hopefully someone has more, equally vague, information for the OP--even
though this has traditionally been the sort of information that one only
gave to fishing buddies after swearing them to secrecy with a blood oath.
Getting on the ground and asking around will probably result in all sorts of
information--some of it probably even useful. Wearing signs of membership in
the fraternity, such as a properly adorned hat or vest, or carrying a fly
rod in a fraternity sanctioned case could result in members of the
illuminati stepping forward at their destination with the desired
information.


Gee, I've never thought of us flyfishers as Illuminati. I like
that. :-)

I hope to get the chance to do that in person one day. :-)

*three* days :-)
