I don’t know about you guys
but I am beyond ready to get on the water. I can’t wait to try some of the Super Nymphs
that Luke over at “The Young Man and the Stream” mailed me last week. He did an
exceptional job at the bench. Thanks Luke for helping me replace the last batch
of flies that was stolen from me back in December. I found out last year that
this fly is not only an awesome bluegill pattern, but a killer trout fly as
well.
My new 8 ½ 3wt. Tempt Redington fly rod with the matching
2/3 Redington reel will be perfect to fight some of the trout on the tailrace
in the next couple of weeks. I lost this same combo in the burglary.
We seldom get snow this
far south, but this year was an unusual year for bitter cold and yes snow.
Bring on Spring!!!
I hope they get the job done for you Bill!
ReplyDeleteBill, I am so ready!! A couple rivers by me are now free of ice but flooded/flooding. I don't care...Im still going out Saturday. I need fish
ReplyDeleteBill, I agree, Luke sent you along some awesome nymph patterns. I need to tie more with the dumbbell eye set up. They are quite popular. Great to see you getting your gear back together after the robbery. Any of that stuff show up in Pawn Shops or even on EBay?
ReplyDeleteNice job on those flies Luke. Must be a treat for you guys to get some of that white powder down by you. The novelty wears thin quick though, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteLove that Redington rod and reel.
ReplyDeleteLots of white in Alabama.
Luke
ReplyDeleteHope to post some results soon with the flies you tie up for me. Thanks

ReplyDeleteMy new Redington combo will be awesome to use on the tailrace. Thanks for the comment
Howdy Bill! I'm ready as well. Let's get this show on the road. By the way, I need your address. I have a few "things" to send you.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the many species you will be catching with those great-looking flies, Bill. Beautiful snow picture, and at least water temps for trout will be cool.
