I'll echo this sentiment. I've been dreaming about them lately.
Was supposed to hit 80 or something this past weekend so went looking for some that might be eating in a few of my spots.

I am down for poo fishen any time Stapes or dibs. Only ever got one and damn it waz fun on a 5 wt! It seems like a bike and the jordan river parkway would be optimal... hmmm I have an old kid trailer in the garage to haul gear...

Headed out early to fish a south slope tailwater. Couldnt drive past open water at an inlet on a high mountain reservoir and found some big dumb cutts...

Don't think I've ever seen a Tim Wade's North Fork Special tied on an Alec Jackson steelhead hook before.

I'm what you call "innovative". It's a pattern I've been "developing".

And you know that's not a N Fk special. And you know Tim Wade is persona non grata in my crew.

So, you coming down to Font in April?

ha ha the ol north fork special. whats wrong with Tim? I slay with the NF special

I've only met him briefly and I was unimpressed, but I put a lot of trust in the opinions of my friends that live in the same town as him and have dealt with his shop for years. Go with Wyoming Trout Guides.

N Fk Special is a good fly, but it's not even close to the fly that I tied on a return eye hook for no good reason.

We'll be in Cody at the end of July if y'all want to hash it out. That's an official invite.

Word. I grew up in Cody... Tim can rub a guy the wrong way for sure... My family has a cabin up the northfork so I will be there off and on in july and august slamming bows. Cant fucking wait!

We'll be at the group site at the west end of the reservoir July 20-24ish. Swing by for beers and bowls.

im ofishshally inviting telee to return to his home waters for that brodown
and your all invited to a 4 20 green get baked extended weekend below the fonts
looks like flows have stabilized @ 6k for now
im hopin to make it up there before then
nice cape on the super grommets:fm:
hopes to share fried chix and piscatorial pursuits with that fine young man again this summers

Im in for 420 session. Was just there yesterday and it is way up higher than Ive seen it out of its banks in quite a few spots. We only got one fish on a rapala I tied myself. I dont understand why we didnt catch much we were using the latest bulgarian tenkara shallow nymphing technique.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...943295344e.jpg

still pretty shocked that I didn't hook into one. I was really covering a lot of water with my tenkara snap T

New job, sadly I'm on shift that Thursday and Saturday. Any other WY plans besides Cody this season?

You slangin hose instead of flies now? Onya, pal.

Kid #2 is coming in June, no plans outside of that (it's a boy), but I'm sure something will come up.

I am fishing for a couple hours tomorrow morning. Private water, if you're interested.

I did book Islamorada for 2018 already.

Indeed. Congrats, we'll cross paths one of these days. On a 48 so won't make it out tomorrow.

Is that the lake that overlooks the valley we talked about?

it's the one I could walk to if I wasn't so lazy

Had a great morning on the river. Most are closed and/or totally blown out but we have an ace in the hole that has been on fire. Only took one pic today but this was one of maybe 25 of this size and sometimes bigger. It was pretty damned fun. Also caught a 18" brookie which was a first for me.

dfinn,

love the fishing with neoprene gloves. I do this too, helps in the wet cold. I am surprised I don't see this more.

They are actually not neoprene, but latex - nitrile gloves. A trick we learned from a guide at Pyramid Lake. They are money for winter fishing!

Absolute game changer on cold days and they don't really get in the way of fishing. Can still strip and tie on flies no problem. You also get the added benefit of always being ready to help your buddies with a colon inspection should they need one out on the river.

If Id known you had gloves on our last float...

That cheesesteak looks fantastic, D!

got the float ons

It wasn't half bad if I do say so myself. I was looking for something other than burgers and brauts and this worked out pretty well.

It's too long of a drive to Moab to not stop and check out some water on the way. Headed down yesterday and wasted a few hours at one of my favorite little spots. Normally I'm cursing the beavers for creating dead water but right now, with the river blown out, it seemed to be where all the fish were hanging out.

One of my favorite hatches! Cool pic! Let's get some days in soon! Wish I could make it next wknd.

Been busy with going back to school to get my MBA, but I finally got out for a day on the water.

I woke up at 1am that morning, thinking about all the shit I had to do in the next two weeks. Presentation this, final that, find an internship (Anyone looking for a marketing intern?), blah blah blah. After 3 hours lying awake, I jumped in the truck and was on the water by sunrise.
