    I haven't fished the morning on the opener for a few years. Have some youngsters that want to go this year. Thinking about Keystone.

    I'll probably be at Miller's Run all day.

    Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

    Good luck. No water in that **** stream at all, and you'll be elbow to elbow with about a dozen other guys fightng over the same 20 fish in each hole. I stopped bye today, didn't see any Palaminos this year, only 3 or 4 fish that looked bigger than 16" and I stopped at 4 different "holes". And by holes, I mean water deeper than ankle deep.

    Don't worry cold. I have a chair for you right next to me at twin lakes along the wall at 5 AM so we can get our spot. I hear there won't be that many people there this year so you should come...

    If I agreed with you we’d both be wrong.

    I'm tempted to go to the breast of the upper lake with one of my fly rods.

    Either that or rip a massive buzzbait all morning.

    No No you have it all wrong. Along the wall at lower, and I'll have all the powerbait you need until rapture. Why not let em swallow your bait and then toss em' back once you've tried to get the hook out and fail. <--- We'll say we are using catch and relase tactics.

    If I agreed with you we’d both be wrong.

    With the lack of snow this year,I would expect a lot of streams to have low water flow. sam
