I think I will be doing alright, now that I've watched a few Hank Patterson videos. Does anyone know how big of a cutbrown population they have? I would really like to catch a 2 foot 14incher. Gonna have at least 1 betty white. :-~
In a couple of weeks, I'm gonna go to Montauk. I am looking for info from anyone who has tips, tricks etc. I plan on visiting Reeds Fly Shop to get info and fresh tackle from them also. I will have kids in tow from 2 yrs old to 12. I plan on using my fly rod that I have only caught 1 fish on (so far).
So, please don't hold back.
.... Can't help but think of the "Hundred Year Storm" from the movie Point Break..... "he aint comming back".
In all seriousness, I hope if any of you decide to fish/hunt whatever during the rains, I hope you all come back. This stuff is dangerous and we all know it.
Seems kinda strange to remove a 6 acre pond for a school. Sorry to hear that you are losing such a great fishing spot. I don't know how many you can support in a pond that is approx 1/3 size. But overall good for you. Maybe you can meet up with others who have ponds that can "share the bounty".
I was camping with my family when hurricane ike came through, at roaring river state park. The flooding was amazing, and dangerous. We were moved up to a higher campground by the camp staff. The next morning, the river was well above 8 feet higher than it was the day before. Be extremely careful if you are camping in the storms produced.
Good news to hear. I am planning a trip to Montauk sometime next month. Any other ideas, sugesstions would be appreciated as it will be my first time there. I plan on stopping at Reeds to get some info also.
Now on to the Geo cacheing, I have read about them in the paper, and have a slight interest. What is the ettiquete on them? Do you put something in place of the items you removed? Do you add to the items? Do you shift the items? I guess How does it work is my main question?
Sorry to intercept, but will you all do us the favor of showing the rest of us all of the flies that were tied? Once all of your participants have recieved them of course. I do not tie, and do not fly fish very often (yet). That would be the reason I did not join, but I am interested in the outcome as well.
CWF, I would still be cautious to canoe in the Mississipi. The tugs and the barges put up a good wake, even now. I have seen a few jon boats that would have a hard time to take the wakes. If you were really on the look out, you should be ok, but I don't know how much fishing you could get done.
