Cameron MortensonMember(I wrote a nice long reply to this thread last night…but then the 14 month daughter started hitting buttons on the computer and the post was lost somehow.
Cameron MortensonMemberWell…not only was the fellow late…but upon arrival to the river he blew through about two dozen flies through break offs on fish…logs…branches…everything that could grab a fly…did.
So I am back to the vise again later this week since I have a three day trip coming up at the end of next week.
Cameron MortensonMemberAwww…give it a try Steve154…what is another charge now that you are living a life of crime…ha.
Since I’ve been using the short rods…in the seven to eight foot category…I’ve been using short leaders in the seven and a half foot length.
Cameron MortensonMemberFor all your illegal actions as of late Steve154…you might want to put Zach up on retainer…
Cameron MortensonMemberI would also look at going to a place where there might be a “magic hatch” occurring but also other options during non hatch parts of the day or if the timing isn’t quite right for the hatch to come off at all.
Cameron MortensonMemberibookje…are you fishing with guides or is this a do it yourself type trip?
I’ve fished a few “magic hatches” before but timing and being familiar with the area enough to make the trip worthwhile can be really the hardest parts.
Cameron MortensonMemberGreat shots Eric.
Cameron MortensonMemberAfter…
Cameron MortensonMemberThanks for the comments.
Cameron MortensonMemberYeah…it is nice to have the solid rib colors, but really all you need is the clear.
Cameron MortensonMemberI’ve caught grayling in Joe Wright Resevoir in Northwestern Colorado on one occasion while living there a few years ago.
Cameron MortensonMemberThe fly looks great.
Cameron MortensonMemberHemp…ummm…I am sure that once the narco lords get tired of smuggling tons of contraband over our Southern Border that they might put their heads together to design a new “hemp taper”.
Cameron MortensonMemberCheck out the Abel rod cases…many sizes…shapes…and look to be pretty solid built.
Cameron MortensonMemberThe Final Product…size 22 red vinyl rib midge…
Cameron MortensonMemberPoudreRiver…that is why your a.k.a. is BIG DRY FLY…
Ah…your story makes me miss living out there.
Cameron MortensonMemberPoudreRiver and I have the same rod and I second his comments.
Cameron MortensonMemberGREAT macro shot of the mayfly!
Cameron MortensonMemberGreat trip report and enjoyed the photographs…especially the last one.
Cameron MortensonMemberDrifter…thank you for the comments on the photographs.
