Lornce,

thats a big fish in comparison to your knee, in the new neighborhood?

Nice.

PS we have never done that drift we discussed a long while ago, I've got a few empty seats if you can make it out.

Jay

Yep in the new area. The place where there is no fish. :-) Sounds good for the drift.

Beauty! Were you using streamers, or has it cleared up enough for nymphs/dries? Haven't been down to check, in the last week or so.

Stones are working they are pre-stage. This big girl took one of my personal tie streamers. Fish are close to the bank.
