It was nice to meet you all today, I'm hoping we all can meet and fish together some other time when our schedules are agreeable.
I got to the river this morning together with David Knapp and we fished until about 10:30 when trevor showed up. He had fished at Big Bend in the morning and caught a bunch of browns. I had 2 bows and 1 brown at 10:30. I missed more fish today than in a long time. I'm a little rusty. Too many weekend in front of the computer. At about 11 am I went back upstream a little bit by myself and caught several better sized fish in one long run. They were rising heavily to a tan caddis hatch size 16. I lost several bigger fish who run in to the rocks.
At noon I went to the parking area to go to RFT for lunch. I ran in to Gerry and his son for a minute. We chatted a couple of minutes and then I went to the store.
I decided to go back to my old run in the afternoon but by then the caddis hatch was over. The rest of the afternoon until 4 pm was very slow. I lost a couple of fish and my last fish of the day were a bluegill and a sucker, better than nothing I guess. I had a nice day on the HI and the weather was perfect. Too bad the drive is so long.
