So I finally had time to shoot up after work, meaning I get there at about 5:45. I went to the  place that has easy access as I had no time to walk anywhere. I got a good spot and managed one good hit and one that was iffy. I also had a little steel hit my fly when I stopped to tighten the reel down, needless to say it was one jump and off.    There was very little fishing going on  , some catching going on and a fair number of fish, most looked small. Some a&& hat across from me  snagged 2 little rainbows  about a foot long. He was whooping and hollering about how he just caught ''little steel''. I yelled over on the second  ''good fishing over there you must be proud''.  Now that I have broken the seal it is all over, I need to go back, it's like crack..........

Well glad you got out Clint , sorry to hear about the crack . Break that habit asap.
Hope the river treats you kind .
Weather related ? Yes !! I been released to roam the woods , highways and waters again . Heading to higher country west of me tomorrow for walk in the woods .
Back again Friday for a stay in the woods and SNOW is in the forecast, given the elevation, probably snow sat & sat night . Last year we had snow there already, hum things are late again .. Lol

Don't worry guys I gave that crack stuff up,  used the money to buy fishing gear. Now a screaming drag, peeling line and  busting my knuckles is all I need.

Booted  and a hike and I’m first  on  the water.
Got in around  4:30 rolled straight to my chosen spot.
Find a comfy spot and wait for the sunrise..
People start arriving about 15 minutes after I got there.
All seemed nice and spaced out pretty good.
Then 10 minutes before legal start a buffoon wades straight  across and sets up on my downstream shoulder.
Time comes and I’m locked on my second cast.
Couple jumps  and spits.
Buffy hits one and also boots it but it was a king.
After that everyone was standing  in the riff staring so intently that they forget to cast until they see something.
If I may opine for a second.
If its overcast and spitting rain and your polarized sunglasses  are an critical part of your equipment you are not a fisherman by any sense of the word.
I  crack off a king and decide its time to get away and set up camp.
 
Buy batteries because the Kodak I drowned now eats though them like the cookie monster.
Tried to get some shorts vids but haven’t figured out how to upload them as of yet.
 
Weht to see Malinda and buy some hooks and materials.
Then a quick drive around and back were I started.
Just as I got there and sat down to cool a bit from the walk a pod of chrome blew through later said to be 15 or 20.
 
Not a touch for me  but the Jim Teeny wannabes poked several through the rest of the day.
Apologies to Jim Teeny who I have met and fished beside and in  reality seems like an OK guy.
Also a note to mention  BE CAREFUL OUT DRIVING .
THE DEER ARE BECOMING ACTIVE!
