  1. I saw last night that the BPS outlet has SPOT systems for $49.99. The yearly basic service appears to be $49.99 or $99.99 depending on level. Has/does anyone use one of these? I am considering one as I do most of my outdooring solo. Any feedback is appreciated.
  2. Looks like you had a good trip! Thank you for sharing. I am envious of anyone who is able to get away for more than a day at a time and live vicariously through their reports
  3. Glad to hear that Champ!
  4. Troy, what would the lead time be on a 4' 4wt in garter snake color with an indicator tip? Feel free to PM me if you prefer, I just also wanted to bring this thread back to the top.
  5. #'s of fish caught for me personally were about: 9 for a 3/4 day of fishing Saturday and 18 for another 3/4 day Sunday (with 14 coming from the fast water in Zone 2 that Jerry spoke of in maybe 3 hours? not sure what time I ended up quitting fishing and just BS'ing lol)
  6. Glad you got into some good numbers Jerry, a strike a cast would make for an awesome day! Your waders, unfortunately, are shot Jerry. You just can't get the urine smell out. You should just give them to me for proper disposal The fishing in the fast water on Sunday was a blast! Thanks for the kind words. The "Magic Pheasant Tail" sure knocked em dead. Standing by for next trip!
  7. LOL I know what you mean about crowded and self conscious, my first trip with a fly rod was on a holiday weekend at Taney
  8. For my first trip to BSSP I was, shall we say suprised? I won't say disappointed, but I expected more larger fish. Friday was slow for me but good size. Saturday after lunch the numbers were awesome but size was lacking. Jerry and Rich did spot a 3 or 4 pound Brown that would've been nice to hookup with Saturday though!
  9. LOL no, just some good hearted ribbing. but for real it's blonde. Just so you know. You can call me whatever you want though Pinky So since you din't say how it went on the fly I am guessing not well?
  10. Count me in unless something drastic happens as well.
  11. Fixed. Did you get to throw the fly rod any Cricket?
  12. My hair is blonde darn it. It probably had a dark reddish tint cause I hadn't showered, just had the ole deodorant bath! This weekend I'm going to go to all of your smallie streams till I find your Tahoe parked and then I am going to take a wizz on the upstream side of you! When you feel the warmth while your wet wading you will know I've struck!
  13. We lack sufficient data to form such a conclusion. What if previous outings yielded exponentially higher numbers? Not saying they did or did not, just saying...
  14. Very nice! I am with flytyer, I am missing the mistakes as well. Do you have a cost estimate?
  15. LOL Glad he got to get in on the fun too! I am game to fish with you guys anytime and anywhere you will let me!
  16. count me in for a couple for the vehicle. Any chance of a patch or iron on or anything for waders, hats etc for us wade fisherman?
  17. It was a pleasure meeting all of you and having lunch together and I enjoyed fishing with you Jerry, Rich, and Mike! Thank you guys for all the tips, advice and pointers that were shared! Hope the catching was/is well for those of you that were able to stay and are staying!
  18. I did well when I first started with a PTN below a grey scud with all hits coming on the PTN. After that dried up I had a couple furious strikes on an elk hair caddis. Missed one and snapped my tippett on the other. So tie EHC and bring me a couple extra. As far as the hatch goes I am not sure. the fish I saw rising were the same couple fish consistently and I couldn't see what they were slurping. Sorry.
  19. Scratch that, pitching my tent in 309 and hitting the water!
  20. Awesome! I am glad to hear that. I am sittin here waiting for the campground office to open as I post this from my phone. I have gotten everything rigged up and ready to roll as soon as I can secure a spot. I will get one in four also, maybe we can get together over a few brews this evening. I have got a sky blue shirt on and will have a bright orange camel back on my chest as my chest pack; shouldn't be hard to miss! Anyonethat sees me come say hello!
  21. Turns out its too late for reservations. Hope I can find a spot. If worse comes to worse I'll car camp! Count me in for official head count either way.
  22. Looks like I am flying solo, driving down Saturday early and camping and camping Saturday night now. Are reservations needed? Is there any way around the $8.50 reservation charge??? I will either be in a gray bmw or red 4 dr grand am. Come say hey, I will have cold beer.
  23. Nice report Al! I always love reading about your floating and catching. Looking forward to your pictures too. I enjoy them as well. And in case you missed it in Chief's post, when are you going to write a book?!
  24. How much do you want for the lot?
