Yeh I wondered the same thing about waterproofing, but after banging around my two Beasts in clackacraft drift boats and my supreme, Im yet to get a drop of water in it.
Simple reason really I rarely end up with a couple of inches
Love those wipers 🙂
I’d leave now but my clients over the next week might be a little pi$$y LOLAnd I have a couple of speaking engagements between the 30th and the 2nd. All comes in a rish huh.
Cheers and looking forward to the pics
Boat would be a real plus, _ the tailwater is 4′ higher than normal high water levels.
Basically the tailwater is now part of Table Rock Lake,
Ive heard of some good fish caught including my old friend the 30+” brown which lived in a certain hole for years. Had a couple of clients over the years connect to that fish, none won LOL BTW either did I.
Give the guys at the Beaver Dam Store a callhttp://www.beaverdamstore.com/
cheers
BTW I did really well with the Matchams Emerger tied in a range of colors. See my piece in Flylife, last year?
The CDC emegers should be good.
I’d probably have 4 flies in an orangey/yellow sulphur 16-18
I’d have a few in olive 14, Flavinea.
And I’d tie some brown 10s or 12sAnd I’d tie some on a short hook as a midge emerger in gray 20s
For Gray Reef etc, I’d buy your midge pupa over here. Lots better range, local favorites.
Thanks for the comment too _ I’m full or good ideas
or something else LOLCheers
Hey scott good to see you over here
Warmwater v coldwater isn’t necessarily lakes v rivers more about what you are chasing
To put it simply coldwater species are trout, salmon grayling

thought they were going to post the same as on my Blog?

http://mountainriverjournal.wordpress.com/2008/05/07/188/Hey Zach, heard that too but life’s too short to worry. Just watch where you put your feet.
Besides I grew up with Aussie snakes LOlMichael, Eric and I were obviously wearing the same shirt, he would never fish a sage even if he left all his rods at home and that was the only rod left in my truck, look my name is on the rod. And I always catch the biggest fish …. Trust me ::)
Hey Zach, they go to Tasmania first 🙂
For mainland Aussies, Tasmania is the Montana of fly fishing (2hr flight), NZ trips used to be like going to Alaska (a lot longer haul) but there was a bunch of cheap airfares to NZ over the last year, causing terrible whining by the Kiwis as the aussies invaded.
Sound familiar lOL

I picked up a spool in Denver the sound of 5x and 10lb was pretty tempting for White River Browns.
Fished it on Dry Run Creek and on the White. Its strong obviously, as been mentioned black, which is a little offputting.Stepson caught some of his best fish on Dry run using this, though for obvious reasons I was fishing an “unbreakable” teccie fibreglass prototype 7′ 6wt. Had one fish bust off a knot, my error I guess, but it was a racehorse. Perhaps no stretch was partly to fault, I was fishing 8′ of this conected to a butt section.
but in normal conditions the stretch/or lack thereof in your 3′ of tippet compared to flyline, rod bend, other 9′ of leader isn’t a great deal.As I said I fished it on the White, but ran out before I had a good test on high water. I caught fish when
Lots of suggestions would work. At 9′ I wouldn’t go too small to balance.
We rigged up the boss’s G2 with the Evolution 2 in Copper, looks pretty trick
Had quite a few copy it. Sets off the rod wraps without being too flashy.
Cheers
SteveMy standards have been
Clousers
Jiggies
Size 6, Either tied with bucktail or craftfurChartruese/White
Fire Tiger
Tan/White
All White.Brighter colors in cloudy water, in crystal clear water Ive gone smaller, more white colors even to a size 10 white crystal bugger with a red collar. slower retrieve.
I also have an article from Bill Butts (of podcast fame) on my blog
http://mountainriverjournal.wordpress.com/tips-tricks-and-ideas/spring-white-bass-i-bill-butts/ on the third page he has flies etc.Cheers and have fun.
I keep getting blown out by runoff this year.Steve
PS: I haven’t used fuzzzels but I have caught whites on dumbell eye versions of the precursor fly to the fuzzels the BMS.
All silver Lite Brite was pretty good on some days.
