purolohi kalastaja 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2012 Well, now that my pup is on his way to being "trained" I'm starting to have time to fish and tie flies again. Maybe even join some swaps.... SHR Rigby's Tonkin Trout Grass aka Tonka I look forward to connecting with those of you I've missed and maybe meeting some new folks.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purolohi kalastaja 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2012 Thanks, man. I'm going trout fishing today for the first time in a year. Exactly a year, in fact. At about 8:30am one year ago I was fishing on the Rifle somewhere below Sage Lake Road and landed an 11 1/2 inch brown on an Adams. I missed him on the first cast to the tip of a sweeper from ankle deep water, so I let him rest for a few minutes. I dropped the fly just upstream of the sweeper and as it hit the eddy at the tip of the sweeper, he boiled the water. After a short fight on my 4wt, he was swimming back upstream to his hole. Hope to do that again today, somewhere down here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
