welch report 12-7.06

[polock]

I went up and fished the spring down to the boyscout cabins access yesterday from about 3-530. Water was up a little still and still cloudy. Fished with a combination of flys, and scented bait switching off. Caught a few small browns on some streamers and this nymph looking fly i tie up. None of any size. switched over to powerbait and my micro set up cause i am really craving some rainbow fried up. Caught a few more little ones that i couldn't keep, and the darn chub minnows wouldn't stay off my line. had a deer chase going on in the woods behind me. thought i was going to get to see a deer put in. all in all i needed to get away for a bit. had a great time. saw eight deer, bunch of hawks, caught some little fish and had a few grolsch beers and a good cigar. as sam says "a bad day fishin is still a great day" and i needed that.

hopefully i will meet some of you on the river some time and you can show me how to reel in the rainbow. Smallmouth fear me :ph34r: :ph34r: but i am pretty sure trout laugh at me.

Sounds like a good time. How was the flow & temp? See any floaters?

Sorry you missed the deer in action, you should check out
