It is a sexy fish! Took a 16 Adams.

Doesn't get any better than that. Old school! The past several years I have found some picky bastards, mostly in lakes, that won't go for anything else than an Adams.

browns on the green with my pop iphone shot

^^^^ my iphone shots are looking incredible crappy especially compared to that.

a few fish from some small stream, 3wt, 5x, dry fishing from this weekend in VT

[KenJongIll]

Got out today in northwest NC. The trout were tiny and few, but the hike and scenery made up for the lack of fish.

[KenJongIll]

Hit the Delayed Harvest section of Wilson Creek today. I've kayaked the gorge section of this creek many times, but never fished it. (have fished the wild upper reaches)
Didn't move over 200 yards for something like 6 hours... Big, Ugly and yellow dries were most popular today. Mostly browns, a few brookies and rainbow. Good day. Again solo fishing is bad for pics...
The Crik


This big ugly was the ticket till I snapped it off in a fish.

Caught two if these bad boys too...

Enjoy your last week of freedom brownie, the bait chuckers will be out to get you next weekend.

Spent the weekend back home jetting around the Yuba/Sac with some of my pro staff dudes trying out 14' stuff.

Throwing a bit of line, with a 4 weight spey....


One of the Skagit Masters tossing darts


Then it was on to Stripers, rods were bent


Fish were gripped


Yours truly with an average fish for the day


Finished up with going a little overboard on local brews


All in all a solid weekend of product testing. Back in ID, hopefully to scratch out the remnants of the Salmon flies.

Awesome man, headed to the Sac. on Friday. Slung you a PM.

You'll find some big bug action Snapt. You may have to go a tad smaller and more natural and keep at least one fly under buy you'll find some action. The Hank isn't the only river with a salmon fly hatch. The Fall is on its way down, although it may get another flush if temps head north in a big way. Didnt check h2o temp but It usually gets a great big bug hatch. Haven't heard word as to them coming off. Many years the water is pretty dirty during the hatch. This yr could be a good yr.

Thanks for the beta Schwerty. Going to do some creekin tomorrow evening. Looking to get out this weekend, let me know if you're around.

Very nice. Are they ever gonna shut down generation this year? I think I got out there the last afternoon they didn't generate and that was at least 3 weeks ago.

South Holston Lake is out of its bounds. You are right, they ran for about 3 weeks, shut down for about 5 hours night before last, and cranked back up. No signs of letting up. One of my clients owns a boat dock on the lake and his parking lot is under water. I keep checking the water levels, and they are barely maintaing what they have running 24/7. If they stop, they lose ground.

Watauga is even worse.

Good for jets and drifters, bad for wading access.

[Bromontana]

Nice color on that piggy bow, very pronounced stripe

Beaverhead, most exciting moment of the day. Good sized bow on a small Salmon egg. Buddy caught it but cameraman privileges gave me a pic as well

[DeathVan]

Quite the Dolly

Been high water and flooding in North VT, so pond fishing has been the target recently.

I'm trying to get a bit more involved in Phw and working to try and set up an overnighter on the green later this summer. If you think you might be able to/ interested in becoming involved or could manage to control a craft in a manner condusive to the posiive pursuit of the fishes or at least navigate a section of river hullside down let me know. Or if you possesed any organizational fundraising skill I suck in that department
