Nice way to start the year PeeWee!
Very nice! Is that rock snot on the pectoral?
no muddy I don't see it in other photos.......guess its just the angle of the fin.
That's a good start to the year!!

Hey Midge, send me that map you keep of where all the big ones live. Well done!
I hereby stand corrected, and will gladly give you an apology. Nice fish!
no big deal Phil ....I heard the same story 10 years ago and a few others like me have learned to fish the river for what it has to offer.Some people catch 30-40-50 fish a day and that makes them happy ........I take 2 maybe 3 that bends the rod and go home happy.
:o :o :o

that wasn't me, snagged that pic and story from FB!
I'm not getting great 411 about how far down that was....
Good day Peewee. 'c; 'c; bd;0 Throw meat, catch meat.
Need to get me a canoe or yak - probably should take refresher swimming lessons first. Not sure if these old bones are up to it anymore.

I've got two kayaks, and a pontoon, but no shuttle....
jis say'in (this one's for you Mudflap)
Nice Pee wee.. Is that second fly articulated also?
Whatever! You know, like, you guys be careful on those floating vessels, like you know, you could sink and like drown! You know like there is a lot of info in the whole twitterverse on anglers like drowning in the freezing winter water. Gotcha, I know like you want to catch fish and all, but you know like you got to be careful!
Wooly & Al we will have to float the smith after wrestling season is over. I'll man the sticks the whole way.
I hope they alter the lower generation flows sometime soon to allow for floats on the weekend. Right now it's only been doable midweek which leaves us working folks SOL
TC, I'm ready!

Yep, deer season is behind me. I'm ready as well. ;D
if they keep up with these crazy low flows, nobody's gonna be floatin it...

27 cfs, can you believe that, those stingy bastards are trying to squeeze out a few more watts out off the old dam....
Shit, i got tired fishing the lower section a couple days ago, water was so low i almost sat down in the middle of the river and started swinging streamers to the far right side! :laugh:
