Fly Fishing Sept 30Th - Oct 2

[vanven]

I am going to head down south for a couple days of fly fishing and to relax before my second child arrives. Feel free to say hello, Dark gray Tahoe with Catch and Release tags on the back.

I am very excited about the weather this year. I typically try to plan a late fall trip and it usually ends up being either 90 degrees and hot or 40 degrees and raining. This year the weather might cooperate and leave me with some ideal time on the water. I will provide a detailed fishing report next week.

Good luck to you Jerod. If the generation schedule cooperates, I think you will find things to your liking this week. IF I see you on the 1st I will say hey.

Jerod,

I will be down sometime this weekend for sure. Just don't know what time. Look for the guy with the bright orange backpack, my name is Jason. In the parking lot I'll be in the dark grey BMW, or if I ride with my fishing partner a dark grey 2wd GMC Sierra with a topper, after market wheels and tail lights.

I will be pacing my cube all day in anticipation. The weather is going to be beautiful.

I have some new streamers including some large streamers, namely Circus Peanuts, with stinger hooks that I am excited to try out this fall at night. If anyone hears screaming at night I might need some help getting that trailer hook out of the back of my head.

Funny you should mention this. This happened to me on friday night. As I was attempting to unhook a fish, the fly came out prematurely and embedded in the palm of my hand. As luck would have it, it was the only pattern that I had not yet converted to barbless. It buried all the way to the bend and would not come loose. I finally had to grab the fly with hemostats and twist and turn my hand until I wore the hole big enough for it to come out. Not a fun thing to do. The same happened last year as well. From now on everything will be converted to barbless. Good luck on your venture.

I havent hooked myself yet. There is that occasion where the hook will come loose at night with a big streamer and with a lot of tension on the line. There is that split second where you see the line go limp and you know that streamer is coming 100 mph right back at you. All you can do is close your eyes and hope it doesnt hit you in the face.
