Thanks Phil and his staff for the enjoyable time at your resort. checked in on sunday around noon and waiting for a friend KCRiverRat to show up he arrived about 3 or so. got him settled in he brought his father in laws boat a tracker perfecet for this tailwater. launced it and went for a ride and to do some fishing it was cold and windy. started ip by the narrows and just drifted jigs that Darin set me up with at the Fly shop. after a few hours nothing not even a nibble, of courrse the wind was blowing so hard to tell . Monday got up early and fished down by the fish house thats where everybody said to go because it was on fire threw everthing i had at them and still nothing this went on all day. tried again at the narrows and nothing. starting to wonder what i was dong wrong KC ended up hooking up with 2 rainbows and me 0. Duane called on tuesday evening and asked how i was doing. i responded terrible he showedd up at the landing and i bought some trout magnets. went out wensday floated those trout magnets and adjusted depth with wiegthed floaat and still not able to catch anything all day. So duane called again sayed that he was at the fish house that i should meet him and do some fishing, so i did he already had one landed and i threw out and the a few casts later got my first fish of the trip woohoo. we stayed an little while longer and the fishing slowed once again. Thanks Duane for taking the time and help me out. wensday same result fishing slowed. Ended up fishing from dock with Sac River Jim and catching a few fish with him and just enjoying the company of Jim and KC. I have a Love hate relationship with this lake. I love that is why i keep coming back trying to figure it out but also hate it cause i am never productive .

Thanks Phil, Duane for thaking the time with me and nice meeting you Sac river Jim and KC RiverRat for spending my birthday week with me

Real nice to meet you guys. Sorry the fishing was so tough for you.

[Sac River Jim]

it was a real pleasure to get to meet and fish with you. that north wind made for pretty hard fishing conditions but sometimes the best part of fishing is just being on the water with friends. i hope we can get together another time under better weather conditions. tightlines my friend.

As Jim said sometimes just bring on the water is enough for me. The fish would have been nice. There is always next time Duane just thankful for the time you took out for us..it was nice meeting all you guys.
