Best Day Ever

[Hopper]

I have to say Sunday at Rims Shoals was the day of fishing I've every had. Took my drift boat I built to the upper end of the shoals and fished the fast water and never had a slow moment. Red was the ticket, I used a #16 glass bubble head red d-rib midge with a red #18 copper john dropper and had to change them out 4 times because the were flat worn out from all the takes, went to the lower end in the after noon and caught more and one decent brown.

Nice brown and cool boat! Building one of those is quite an accomplishment. Well done.

This is shaping up to be a stellar year for river fishing all around. I dig the boat....awful partial to the traditional look myself.

Hopper did you fish taneycomo on monday? I fished just alittle down stream from a guy with a boat that looked alot like that one, if that was you that is a VERY nice boat. When I was walking out around 11:00 it was anchored off to the side I wanted to take a closer look but didn't want to seem nosey.

very nice boat. glad you had a good day fishing, the low flows should be around for a while.

That was me, fished tanney Sat. and Mon., fishing was definately tougher, fishing pressure was pretty high also, never seen that many anglers, if you see me again go ahead and take alook.

Same story on Monday...water was falling out when we got there around 7:30 but the fish were rising at the tail of the shoal... We did best early on a soft hackle but when the sun got up good switched to a red/silver zebra midge. It was good to have low water and to be able to wade again.
