Ya pays your quarter
Well the difference a day makes. Started in the lfz since that is where 13 and I saw the most steelfishes yesterday. Nada. Saw one darkening male hooked in about 2 hours. Went to another spot and found a friends truck and decided to join him. I had Emailed my days plan to him before leaving. His first words to me were "I think you made a tactical error". He had been out about an hour and had hooked 5. He then proved what he said was correct. In the next 2 1/2 hours we hooked 20 to 25 rustheads. I'm a bad friend. This was the best I could do getting the camera out in the rain. If I won't chase my own fish why would you expect me to chase you to get pic of yours. Bill fighting various fish.

Now anybody that knows or has ever fished with me will be shocked by this but the fishes were so thick even I managed to hook up. The only one I put to the beach. 12 or 13 pounds of sweetness. This was one very hot fush. Honestly the hits were so awesome that we were laughing out loud, talking to each other with our heads turn when fish ran or jumped or managed to bust us off some other way.

Full disclosure I should add that we had 4 or 5 fish leap out of the pockets as they were going upriver.
The only reason we could think of was they were getting pushed by other fish because there were so many.
They should be waiting for you Jack.

Heard quite a good run came in yesterday . With this nice water they should make it through town without too much trouble.

1470 now, and rain in the forecast until Sunday. I can stay home and hit those flows on the Genesee and not have to drive 110 miles to break a leg. Let's hope they step it down as fast as they stepped it up after the weekend "Flush". Certainly breathing was a mouth only proposition in Altmar, send some of that fungus back to the big lake, and clean it out for the Board folks converging on Altmar and Pulaski next week (me too if things go right at work!)

Dime I usually way luckier than I deserve.
Last year I hit 4 separate days (not quite like this last one)
where I had action from as soon as I started fishing til I decided to leave.
One of them was pod after pod of big fish I couldn't handle fishing a 6 weight where I was.
My bad for thinking it was about cookie cutters.
Lesson learned!
Yesterday was a season's worth of memories in a day.
My only regret is that I never did put on the foam skaters I had with me to see if I couldn't add another one to the surface take bank.
Been a log time since I have had the chance and I was too greedy hooking up to stop.
Full disclosure
I haven't heard from Bill.
I'm afraid he stayed and wore himself down to a nub or had a heart attack or something

Every little back eddy we saw yesterday still had bloated stinkies in it.
They will be smelling up the whole river when the water drops again.
