Got to the parking lot around 5:00 p.m. and one generator was running. Not very many people were there and I headed down to the big hole. I was spearmintin with some new flies and fishing accross from a nice fella that was from St. Louis named Dave. Dave kept pulling them in one after an other and telling me to put on a grey scud. I kept explaining to him I was spearimentin with some new flies for night fishing. I was getting a few hits here and there. Watching the action of the new flies was entertaining enough. Did get to see some nice sized browns come in to take a second look at the fly a few times. The water shut off and started dropping then the fish started biting for me. Caught 7 bows at the big hole then worked my way up the gauntlet. Caught a few more in the gauntlet, one about 17". Started to leave at dark (imagine that, me LEAVING at dark) and no one was at chute 2. Just couldn't resist flinging the new fly in the chute and it paid off. A 19" bow on the first swing. Threw a couple of more times and nothing so I had to try my luck at chute 1. Spent about 5 minutes up there and nothing so a pack up and left. Cant wait to come up with some more color combo's on this new fly.

Not bad for fishing in the daylight using 8 lb. tippet and throwing a 6" fly

You just went so early because you knew Leonard wouldn't be there and you could actually fish and not have to net all his fish... :lol:

By the way... On an 8 wt rod? After breaking off a few Monday, I'm going back to the 8 lb. tippet...
