Went out Friday and the water was beautiful. Started at the park at around 10:30 and noticed the huge piles of rocks that are very close to the stream. Has anyone seen these before?

Anyways, back to fishing. Caught 8, mostly small with the big one being 9', but it was a great day. No dry flies as I never really saw a good hatch and the fish were not to interested in my mediocre presentations of a Royal Wulff anyways. All my fish came on a gray nymph that I created with the help of three Sam Adams and a little free time this winter. Nothing that I could really compare it to, and I don't have photos right now because I never thought it would actually work b/c its so darn ugly(but it does exist).

Beautiful day and warm.

Cheers.

The rocks in the city park are there for erosion control I believe. A while back I was talking with Ray (if anyone has his email, pm me, I'd like to thank him for the flies he left in a paper towel under the windshield wiper) and he explained that they were there for that reason.
