Wow

There are a few distinct days to every season. Today was one of them. We'll catch up on blog posts in the coming few days but it has been a fun bit of fishing lately. Today we stumbled upon a most impressive hidden creek that opened up to a few troughs, each holding 4 or 5 browns in the 16 to 22" range. Best of all, we only saw about 14 or 15 rises all day. Each of those 14 or 15 rises was to our dry fly. Today, we didn't miss a take to the dry. Add in countless such trout using other methods, and today was a stellar, most unexpected adventure. A day where nothing could go wrong and everything that could go right did. For a +4C day after a 5 day cold snap, we're still shocked at how it all unfolded. We'll post a few shots later this week.

We wish you well as you get back out there this week!
