April Fools

Howdy Friends,

I got to spend all day Friday on the river with my new friend Shatoshi Yamamoto from Japan.  I found him through his blog, http://leftyangler.blogspot.com/2011/04/yellowstone-grand-slam.html, where you can read a much more detailed account of the afternoon.  He's a talented fly tier and fisherman and it was fun to spend the day with him.
   One thing you wont read on his blog though is what happened to me early in the day.  This event was a first for me.  In all of my life of fishing I never have once hooked myself, in the face!  I was making a cast and just got out of time and whipped that #18 gnat right into my cheek.  Luckily it was a #18 and it came out without too much work, but it did leave a mark.  Ouch!
     Anyway it was a nice warm day to be out on the river and I look forward to the rest of the warm days soon to follow.  Hope to see you below the green boxes.
