    I believe Hard work really makes the man, but everyone should wet a line, every now and then.

    Mika,
     
    Good luck.  There are some hogs around.  I landed a 10 lber this evening on Walnut.  I stopped off at Poor Richards to have it weighed.  While I was there, they weighed in one at around 12 lbs, another just at 10 and several at 8 and 9 lbs.  With the good flow and cool temperatures, there should be some great fishing tomorrow.

    So how'd you do, Mika??

    Also, rap, if you're interested, I'll be up at Elk tomorrow at dawn.  I don't expect to be exactly alone, but neither will I be combat fishing.  If you're interested, let me know.  I'm not claiming to know anything or promising any fish, but I've fished the same section three times now, and havent had a problem getting enough room to feel comfortable, which was one of my biggest fears about trib fishing.

    I'll be meeting some friends up there who plan to leave this afternoon, but you're certainly welcome to come with.

    We'll definitely hit the water some time.  Good to hear you're back off the PUP list!

    Had a great time as always. If ya like salad you would have caught your limit yesterday with all the leaves washed in the creeks.
    Fished with my neighber , who never steeled before, and some board members here.
    Had a good lesson on egg fishing.lol And great company too.
    Managed 3 legal hookups and several snagged fish. Brought 2 home for the smoker, bear camp will enjoy them!lol
    My neig. managed to land 1 but lost many. He now knows why you need waders.A new rod, reel, line and a variety of tackle.
    I think hes hooked.lol
    We hit Elk first thing but nothing at first stop. At the second spot we faired better but all but 1 was foul hooked.
    We ate lunch then to the "nut".
    It was a little clearer but still leaf ridden.
    Did very well here but again the snagged and kept fishing going on.
    Green and glow egg was the ticket.
    Good luck all, will be after bear, then deer, so who knows when I,ll be back. But I will be back! lol
