Arkansas Mike 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2009 Howdy, Jan. Hope you had a blast. Those cutties are pretty fish aren't they? Even the small ones are fun to catch. Maybe it is just me, but I'd rather catch trout that size on a fly rod than 10 pound catfish out of my pond. It looks like your stream was a slice of Heaven. I can't believe you guys are already getting snow and ice up there! It's still touching 80 on the thermometer down here. Thanks for posting the pics, I enjoyed them.

smallieFanatic 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2009 Thanks Mike, the stream is indeed heaven for me. We don't have snow yet, but we did have that brief hail storm that was so insane it screamed for a photo. Jan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkansas Mike 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2009 I saw on the Weather Channel that they were already getting snow up in the mountains in Oregon or somewhere up there in the NW. Or maybe I only dreamt that... Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Futzer 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2009 Oh, be careful what you wish for, you young tyers are getting very very good, there are going to be hoops to jump through this time. And I am going to make you send a bug in to me too. Am thinking multiple weeks, multiple flies which I will name each week. But that may change. Am thinking in about 3 weeks when my schedule returns to a dull roar, vs all out chaos. Cheers, Jeff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
