Chuck and duck is the only way to fish some of the bigger rivers that flow into great lakes. I have used it in orecon and washington to great effect in their rivers. They use much heavier gear and many spots are difficult to fish with conventional sink tips, if not impossible. My grandfather handed me my first flyrod at six and to him any trout not caught on a dry fly that he tied was not worth pursuing. He never looked down on me for being a bait fisherman as I found small brushy creeks within a bikeride the best places to trout fish.There is to much seperation of of ethics going on in all aspects of game management. A man that kills a deer with cedar hand fletched arrrows and a long bow has my respect, but he should not get a woods to himself that I can't use a compound in. Too much meism going on in regulation of game ethics in my opinion.

Got up at 4:30 went to the park and bought my sticker found a place to park,and walked around for an hour. Looked like the Kenai, saw some guys fishing 2 deep,combat fishing. Bagged it and went to piney. Caught 9 trout in an hour and only saw one other fisherman. Love the park,but went on opening day 4 years ago,did the same thing then. Just not able to enjoy the day in that crowd.

Saturday very ggod below mill dam. only saw one other angler. I sawed the log across lower access road so happy trails.. sunday afternoon was even busier at the access and fishing had dropped off noticeably. Hold overs must be caught out already.
