So I got up at first light and was able to get a few hits, but nothing stuck. I was finally able to get a good take and land this Ho. I also played with a few steel and other Ho's that jumped and spit.
As the morning went on the anglers increased and I think I know why.
It seems like every time I go I complain about something or observe something not quite right. Well today îs no different. Are folks so stupid and ignorant they do not know a fish I foul hooked????????? Had a guy across from me hooking up left and right. He was the know all type, lecturing to those across the river on which fly was '' working'' of course they were eating it up an switching flys at his command. Almost every fish was fouled. It's pretty easy to get hook ups when every fish leaves the rap**** and sits in front of you. CAST SWEEP LIFT. That's it. Pretty easy to tell when the tail end is facing up stream and that is the direction the fish is moving too. They move sideways through the water too. Different folks same stuff. People above me, they would be chasing a fish and I would tell them '' it's hooked in the dorsal, you ain't gonna turn it around in the fast water.'' I would get excuses like '' It was a good hook up there, the line wrapped around it'' or ''that's not my hook in it's ****'' I would just laugh and wait for the line to snap or for them to get wet. It was a humorous morning. I basically had a real nice stretch to myself so to each their own.
I left and hit a few other spots from mid river up to the ball park and saw and had no luck.
I guess you can put nothing with letters 1D in it anymore.
