Phil, you need to get out there. Its an awesome river. The fishing can be a challenge sometimes but its worth it.

SCUDZ RULE....do you have some kind of a mental issue ? I don't get you at all...carry on with your randomness.

Randall...I love my waist-pack. It currently holds 2 double-side fly boxes in the middle compartment along with the fold down foam patch being full of flies. I could stick 2 medium sized boxes or 1 large box in the large compartment but I usually keep my licenses, phone, camera, snacks, etc in that pocket. I've got the thing packed with all kinds of stuff, everything I could need to fish with room to spare. Its a great pack, very comfortable to wear. I will say that I bought mine used off of EBay, not sure if I could bring myself to pay full retail for this pack. I think its like $120 or $130 new? Quality gear but they sure are proud of it.

Why does it matter if I have mental Issues? Yes I do. Was just my observation. I Happened to notice fishing pictures, with all the anglers looking angry, not happy. So I said SMILE, What part don't you get? WAS THAT RANDOM ENOUGH FOR YOU?

From reading your fishing reports, I believe we fish the same areas. You fish at Baptist more than we do but I plan on fishing down there more. There is some sweeeeetttt looking water downstream. We got into several nice fish. I seen a few fish over 20" that I spooked out of holes...there are some toads in there!

That water is awesome down there. One thing I've noticed down around Baptist is that the fish I catch are often where you wouldn't expect them-shallow riffles, slow tailouts, etc, and the awesome looking deep pools can be a little tough. I see big browns sulking at the bottom of them, but I haven't been able to give them want they want yet. One time the guy I was fishing with did hook up with a massive brown down there, but it broke the 6x before he could do much.

Chance,

Next time you decide to go, give me a call. I'd love to fish that river with somebody that knows the river. I don't mind the challenging times. It makes me appreciate the fish even more when I do hook up.

You and your buddies keep up the good work on the blog. The writing and the art of story telling is being represented very well by you guys.

Phil
