Great pic, I entered this pic of my son, but didn’t make the cut. After seeing the other pics, I need to step it up next year. I just couldn’t resist entering his pic with that look of pride after getting a fish on a dry and a 2 wt.
It’s all good. Hit it yesterday with my son and my dad. Fish for everyone and 64 degrees to boot. Trico’s and midges are the theme of the day.
Thanks for all the comments, she was a blast.
I shouldn’t reveal where she was caught for fear of reprisal from my buddies, but sufice it to say she was from a tailwater, not in MI.
Exl, my dream is to join the 20/20 club, but I’ll have to wait, now I have a new goal. Down on the Elk in WV there are a couple of guys that have a 10/20/30 club. This is a 20″ fish on 10x tippet with a size 30 fly. If I knew where to buy 10x and how to keep it from breaking when I tighten my knot, I’d love to give it a try.
Don’t mean to derail the thread, but Rocca finished second to John Daly at the Old Course in ’95. The putter was instrumental in Rocca getting into a playoff with Daly, because Rocca made about a 100′ putt thru the Valley of Sin to tie and force the playoff. Daly was sporting the mullet in those days and married to the trailer honey. Rocca has never won the Open Championship.
Nice to meet you Andrew. I am from Indiana and went to IU as well. I miss the Blue Bird, Nicks and the Runsible Spoon.
If you ever get back to the Hoosier State, let me know and we can chase some fish.
Thanks for making me feel old Lee. No powerpoint in my day, just the old overhead projector and a grease pencil.
Brings back memories of Diff EQ and trying to stay awake.
Nick- The bigger fish came from a tailwater in Indiana that has been producing some nice fish over the past couple of years. The natives were from near Elkins, WV.
Mike- We will fish this summer for sure. Let me know if you want to head out for trout or bass and I’m in.
