Fishing continued today. Up early for a visit to the Widowmaker. Just had a few hours to put in because a new adventure starts later this afternoon.
I invited Scott since he was butthurt that I fished alone yesterday. Obligations kept him away. He's really gonna be pissed when he sees this.  :o

Silly humans and their shrines to themselves. The "look at me" generations left lots of evidence. I wiped them away with a swipe of my gigantic boot.

My camo shirt for today.

The water was up slightly and chalky. It started out slow. Clipped the dry/dropper off and went with a double nymph rig. The sun started to hit parts of the water about then, too. Bang-O!

We call this The Widowmaker for a reason. All these have come down since I was here a month or so ago.

Kept climbing up and pulling nice fish after nice fish. The brookie population started to take over. No fish were harmed with a dry fly.

And I lost a lot of fish.  8)
Headed to the lake in a few to see if me can spot some carp in the shallows.
Peace, out, bitches.

Nice work on the fish and cairn tipping.

I didn't get home today until 4:30.  I almost packed up and went to the Smith just to get a fix, but I was exhausted...I just woke up from a 2.5 hr nap.  SMH

Nice work!   bd;0

Doug, that looks like one hell of a day out.
I assume you lost count at some point.

I usually lose count at 10-12.
I was telling J that I didn't post a bunch of pics. The 10" bows started to look like the same fish.
It was stupid. I only fished 500 yds? I should have bailed on my afternoon plans.

500 yards...good lawd that is a hell of a day.
I hope to have a few minutes today to post a sub-par report on all the dinks I caught Saturday.

Yup, going fishing
