I was looking through quite a few of my pictures today and found a few I hadn’t posted. The bigger ones were nice and frankly probably some of the largest I managed to net this season. The small ones, I was always surprised I didn’t rip there face off or …
No Pictures, No Fish. I went out, to the same spot as the last two times just to continue the experiment. I tried the same tato-scud/indicator rig for five casts and moved on. Had some problems with getting snagged a few times. I didn’t have the time I wanted and felt …
So being fairly new, i.e. this is my first summer seriously fishing for trout, I didn’t fully understand what a friend of mine at work meant when he said he couldn’t wait for “hopper” season. Honestly, hindsight makes me think how could I not have known what he meant but …
Went out for a few more hours of hunting. I wanted to do an experiment to see what affect a few changes have so I went back to the exact same spot I tried last night at the same time. The weather conditions were almost exactly the same. The trout …

Lily has started to recover from her surgery. She has a new shiney orthopedic plate under her skin on her back right leg. She has a mean looking 27 staples holding the skin togather until next week. We are taking slow walks once or twice a day right now, keeping …
Aug. 19th-23rd 08′ Liz and I needed to get away from everything before she started school on the 25th of August. We stayed at a private campground outside of the State Park. We arrived Tuesday and stayed through Saturday morning. We brought the dog so trout hunting was difficult but …
Today I fished almost the entrie length of one of the branches of the Whitewater River today. I would not recommend this for most people. This is on one end rediculious bordering on insane and on my end what I call ambitious. Early on I realized I managed to forget my …
Working on tying my scuds for this coming winter season which will be my first winter trout season. From the information I’ve read and heard, winter fishing is going to be fun but difficult. No weeds to walk through but then nothing to block your shadow. No rain so the …
