timsfly Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Started out at Bennett today, didn't spend more than an hour there, had to run back to the shop for a customer, so I left, and fished Roaring River also, fishing was very good, caught 15 and Bennett and about 30 at R.R. had a lot of fun, caught everything at bennett on a pink egg, #16 When I got back to R.R. the mailman had just left me a 5' package I ordered this rod from a guy on one of the forums, and it was a hoot, I fished it all afternoon, it was a 10' 1wt. Very nice rod, it was built by him or a friend of his, one or the other, it is very soft, you have to set the hook, about 1/2 second before the fish hit. I did manage a nice 5lber on the 10' fly rod, and it was a hoot, I think I'll try the rod with an 0 or a 00 fly line next, anyway fishing was very good at R.R. today, and what I got to do at Bennett was pretty good, caught my fish at R.R. on a Caddis dry, #18 and on a apricot #18 egg pattern, 6X tippet on the egg, and 7X on the dries, caught this 5lb bow on the egg.

Members osuangler Posted December 14, 2010 Members Posted December 14, 2010 Thats pretty bad Tim when you can't tell the difference between 5lbers you've caught..... Makes me real jealous! Beautiful fish, and I sure enjoyed your video on twitter too. Keep em coming!
