Members Zeke Kuehn Posted March 21, 2012 Members Posted March 21, 2012 Andre324 and I fished the last 2 days (3/19-20) and had good luck. The browns that have been stocked are extremely aggressive and put up a great fight. We only caught browns floating this section. I caught a nice bow and a brown from the Bank at Sunburst Ranch and on Fantasy Island. We also camped at Sunburst Ranch and the stretch of river that runs adjacent to the property is really good water. Justin and Amy Spencer of Sunburst Ranch were more than hospitable and I will be back soon. I would make mention of the river level, but as of now it looks like the they are getting 3 or more inches down there right now. "Fish Long and prosper"- John Geirach

Justin Spencer Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Enjoyed having you guys, looks like you will be the last ones to fish it for a while.

Andrew324 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Yes I had a great time with the driftboat/streamer learning curve and thanked the fishing gods for holding back the rain. Justin & Amy will have to let us know how the Mother's is, and if we should import more from Springfield?

Arofishing Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I see. So while you were catching brown trout on the NFoW I was: 1) hiking the most grueling 14 mile stretch of my life 2) in the middle of a 30 mile hike 3) being severely dehydrated because we gave our water to the two that turned back and there were no streams 4) with a 60+ pound pack on my back 5) carrying an extra 5 pounds of fishing gear that I didn't even need because there were no fish Yeah, I'd say you made the right decision in not pursuing my little plan for spring break.

Yeah Zeke and I really hatched this plan and flew by the seat of our pants. I need to get you on the driftboat before an institution swoops you up for a few years of doctoral punishment!
