Good times were had. Laughs were plentiful. Outstanding weather.
Schwerty, I kept double taping that laker pic waiting for a heart to show up.
Dry fly trout season in the northeast is officially over for me this year, moved on to chasing different things.

I just landed in Boston, too short of a trip to make it to dad’s cape house/chasing stripers so have to live vicariously through that pic.

Nice one L8! Looks healthy.
Nice work!
I don't have any fish porn so I'll just post another pic of camp.

There are a few good ones around. Honestly, I was impressed by the number of low 30’s fish. It’s been a few years since I have come across that age class.
Headed back over in a few weeks.
Dang
Yup.

Shawn, I broke one of your extra long fly poles on the first day, and I’m super stoked on my new waders with the zipper.

maybe a dozen crafts on the water mostly rubber
kinda nice not dealing with fossil fuel burning wave chop all day
risers o plenty at launch but the wind came up
plenty of catching
https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds
and while tight lines is cool and all
the amount of tension on em does 2me
had 1 nice cutty that i lost trying to handline the waterproof camera shot with what turned out to be a full memory card
Used to do pretty good there fore the turn of the centuries and it was the better 1/2 favorite camp ground
i guess theyre putting in yurts this season for the glampers
but there not in yet
things move slow at elevation
well cept for snowmelt this year
not much lingering We'll be back perfect slimer sup lake
bailed in hopes of a more substantial bending of the whippy sticks
there were plenty of campers and people plying the water below so we didnt stop or pull off
made a left to continue rt40 freedom bachelor weekend
wanted to go to see zed calder or jones hole, im pretty sure it should be game on for gorge carp in the bays bout

seems to me if theres a little fish problem well
please put the tigger muskies in they seem to do a good job at that
think i had a better eye on
sumthins got a new baby gonga peircing and at least i got a good couple dozen out of him
some day im gonna tie with proficiancy but under a dollar a fish and supporting the local fly shop and sirilankian economy is okay
i like the loop knot imho theres no way you git the same actions outta a frictionless knot
but a few hundred casts of frictions gonna take its toll
i need to slow down and retie more
tend to git in the zone
trolled back from knights
got a decent bow and a
couple smash n grabs unknown perps
plenty of dusk snoots
pretty wild fire enhanced sunset
pretty minimal boat traffic fri and not many out late
threw the tent up
thankfully everybody got settled in and shut off their gennies by 11
got up early 4ish
starvation always seems windy in the am
slept an hour
heard the motors got up
cant fish the walleye chop all day if ya dont start in the am a few boats out early
https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds
stuck another bass on my first cast and sent the skunk outta the boat right off the bat
https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds

https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds
trolled back packed the tent headed back out
stuck a stickbending line tensioner that got giggy with it as big bows tend to do
https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds

Nice morning on THF, don’t think we stuck a fish under 20”. Drake hatch is ramping up. I will say, as my fly flinging upbringing was on the east coast, it is fucking weird having hatches in the middle of the day.
If anyone is around the next few days give a holler, we’ll be somewheres on the ranch section each day till Monday.

Wisconsin has trout too, not just walleyes & Muskys.
Dude in pic is my Mom’s next door neighbor, the “musky guide”. I use quotes because he is basically a version of SFB with extra cheese. Has a wealthy SWF hotty for a spanser allowing him to get baked and fish 365 days a year.
He is taking pitty on me and trying to teach me how it’s done around here. He used a night crawler for this trout. Not a nightcrawler pattern, an actual nightcrawler...
