trico

I havent spent any mornings out yet, been really busy, but I would say most likely they are hatching. Last year the spinner falls were at a time you might not expect. The "7am they fell, you missed it" held no water, again that was last summer!

Drake it sounds great, the tricos are a great hatch & let me know
I can go any weekend except the 3 & 4 of august. Dave

I'll be there for sure, J

See you gentlemen at 7 AM Saturday.

Well?
What time did they hit?
Good? Bad?

 
Lots of Tricos in the air, I left the stream at 10am and the spinners were still in the air and not falling. I'm curious to know what time they fell, myself.
 
Hey Jeremy, lets see those sucker pics!

They never did come down in the section we were on.  I stayed until noon and then went up to the Pardise for some abuse.
 
I have a theory on why they didn't come down and it doesn't have anything to do with a bunch of darksiders waiting for a little dignified action.
 
Last fall, Duncsmom and I tried to go for a hot air balloon ride.  We didn't get the chance because no one was permitted to fly on the day we tried to go.  The reason was that the mix of humidity and air temperature made the air such that while the flying would have been good, the balloons would not have been able to land.  The air would have held them high enough off the ground that they would never get there.
 
I have noticed, especially during sulphur spinner falls, that they really don't hit the water until the air temperature reaches or drops below 68 degrees.  If the air is particularly humid, sometimes that doesn't even work.
 
The area we fished had a pretty good rain Friday night.  If you recall, the air was very thick, hot, and sticky on Saturday morning.  Even though the air temperature was ina good range, the air might have had too much moisture to allow the spinners to get on the water.  When the humidity did burn off, the air temperature got too high and had the same effect.
 
But this is only a theory.
 
I don't know what the difference was down by Dave's camp, but only a few degrees of temperature or humidity may have been enough to allow the spinners to drop those last three feet onto the water.

Heres your sucker

jon,

I have sprint, all i need to do is open my phone, select the images, say upload and it uploads it to the sprint website.

http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/publiclogin.do

I pay $5/month for it.

You can buy cables that hook to your phone and go into the usb drive of the computer, then all you need to do is plug the phone in, the computer will recognise it, then just pull the pictures off of it. I need to buy the cable, paying $5, although not that much is rather rediculas.

Im lucky to upload 3 pictures a month, if that. I really only use it when no one has a good camera, as you can tell the image quality sucks! But, it saves more then a few moments that would be lost.

I just had to post this one, just in case anyone didnt click on the link :)

 

Dan,
 
Did you finish your Sucker book yet?
 
Can I get an autographed copy please?

Consider it done.

Thats funny! I wish they would put something rediculas into these phones, like 8mp, id buy one just because of situations like that. Had the good picture been taken with a decent camera, I may have had it printed.

First you Photshop a sucker to look like a trout...

yea I want to catch a big one to, can not wait
till alaska trip in late august
