Float the Stone

Howdy Friends,

Got to float yesterday with my buddy Satoshi!  He was a rowing machine.  (Excellent rower btw)

Here's a link to his post at leftyangler.blogspot.com

Hope to see you below the green boxes.

City Life

Howdy Friends,

This was a note I found on a scratch piece of paper from a training class in Denver I had to take a few years back.  Thought it was fun.



"It was a hatchery of sorts not really where it should have been.  Tall buildings and a choir of tires singing of the pavement.  But it was a hatchery none the less and the morning duns let me know that I really wasn't that far away from where I really longed to be."

Salmon Fly Invasion

Howdy Friends!

Happy belated Fourth!  Fourth of July in Yellowstone country means salmon flies.  This year's hatch could very well be the biggest I've seen in the past decade.  Vast swarms have been coming off the river here in town almost every evening for the past week.  Fishing has been great but not too many big fish.  Most are running around 10 inches or so.  Did catch a few nice ones however on Tuesday night with Lee.  We are currently seeing salmon flies, golden stones, yellow sallies, about 3 different kinds of caddis, and a crane fly.  Mosquitoes aren't too bad yet and wet legging was enjoyable with above average temps we are seeing.  The river is dropping like a rock and I'm hoping too get out as much as possible while we have the water.  Here's some pics and a video from the past week.  Hope to see you below the green boxes.
