Went for steelhead today with Vinman, on a notorious VT steel fishery in the cold months, but when it warms they head back to Lake Champlain and the smallmouths move into the trib. Looks like we were a week late on the steel, but these guys more than made up for it. Switched from egg and nymph patterns pretty quickly once we realize what was going on and landed a bunch of beauty bronze bullies. Haven't had sticks bent this far in a while, been a long ski season. Stoked to be back on the water.

The shop I teched for this winterShameless spam
Took us all to the big isle in HI. as a season ending bonus
Took the stick and made some casts
Not a lot of flats mostly fly eating lava and waves
Still being a member of the church of fly chuckers I went to mass daily passed by the other peoples place of whorship enroute to ours
headed down south as far south as you can in the united states anyhow.
Ive circus nymphed with balloons but the garbage bag indicator was a new one for me
crew did some huckin
poured a sip out for the pursuers of the fishes that are no longer with us
Hiked over to some green sand beaches
dogs and shelters
So hopin for a shot at some big HI bones we island hopped over to Ohua had a local company grab us at the airport and drop us and a kayak off next to the airport on the triangle flats
loadeded er up and headed out
easy acess to cool water
the bones were there and they were big green tinted torpedeos
fish on
and the fish off look of frustration as another diched him in the coral
Had a few shots and some fish on but none came to hand
substained ourselves w/ beer and bongos
Of coarse the closer it got to my 6 pm flight the tide came up and more fish came in
and of coarse that ended w/ me having to run to the airport.
should of grabbed this but he'd seen better days
as had this craft
Wife showed up and we headed up n and hiked a bit round the Valley of kings Waipio
found a reminder of the wasatch
managed to kill the camera the next day so this is it for fish pics
fished a bit at the harbor and amaloua sumthin a bay, but other than all the cornet I care to catch fishin the big island from shore is tough and donating flies is a given. I would definately head back to oahu for another stab @

Nice HI Stoke! Same experience on my part from shore (including the many missing flies and coronet fish). Now I did meet some locals that were fly fishing from kayaks, that looked very interesting but I didn't try it.

Really nice stoke all and kick ass trip SFB. Looks like yous guys had a blast.
This is not my fish, but the doods over at "Vermont Fly Guys" pulled this one in this past weekend from a little Vermont Creek. One of the best browns I have seen landed on a fly anywhere in VT

Went home to see my parents and fish with my dad this weekend
Friend's pond saturday evening
Caddo lake Sunday Morning...cool (relatively), windy and rough
This lake was home to some of the first offshore oil production. As a result, there is trash in the form of "sucker rods" (rebar and old pipes) all over the lake that are difficult or impossible to see and will fuck a boat up in a hurry if you hit them at speed. So despite many parts of the lake looking wide open, it's not safe to run anywhere close to full throttle except in the network of marked boat roads.
We did find some spots that were sheltered, one little bass that inhaled a popper in some lily pads and what I think was a chain pickerel that shook off during a botched netting.

One of my buddy Bill from last night. I usually don't bring a camera but this creek warrants the risk of me getting in deep shit with my Wife if I drop her fancy camera in the water. Unfortunately, this was the only time I took it out of my pack. The fishin' and catching of these hogs was too good to fumble around with a camera.
