Guess the simms & orvis catalog guys going to have to walk it in further now or get there earlier

I coulda swore that you had so many Simms waders that you were trying to sell a pair?? Jk I know what ya mean....

Sorry to here this, even though I will only fish it in the winter...what exactly is the reason for the closer??? Havent had any extremely high water to blow out the road recently?? Was there a rock fall of some sort?? Curious

Welcome to trout fly fishing snobs 101 my friend :o . Most fly fisherman are that breed. You should see the look on some of the guys face sometimes when I switch up from fly rod to spin rod. Like I they swallow a softball :lol: Funny thing, most of the snobby ones can't catch a fish and don't know ...

Looks like a beat up prince nymph or a zug bug... pic not in a fish mite help...wtg...hope ur hooked fer life!! Fly fishing is a wormhole we all end up loving!!

Saw a few this evening...very lower sb...stockie water if that helps...prob another week fer the upper stretches

It's been going steadily down hill for the last five yrs....I've been steadily noticing more put and take fisherman that dont think twice about taking wild fish....that stretch used to be referred to as the holy water, w 30-50 fish days....unfortunately no longer the case

Gr8 advice!! Dont forget those gps coordinates.... anyway it's all well known...our states f&g gives all these access points and directions on there website, just takes a lil diggin...but alot of ppl aren't even willing to do that..before we know it fishin pics will come tagged with lat n long and i...

Haven't passed through there recently....how do you know its changed hands? Has the signage changed??

As a guy who likes peace and quiet too, i just dont choose to fish waters in actual tourist attractions, lol. yes i find it annoying too but it's the price your gonna pay for having access to a national recreation area. Liter too, id advocate the park admins to figure out how to reduce liter withou...

The only thing that kills ticks is permethrin. They are the devils bug

Guinea hens!! Will eat hundreds per day

Nice, broski. Did you hook into the trout at the end of the drift or on the swing? Big hit came just as I was lifting to recast. Made me jump. Short, slow strips across the end of a pool brought another up. [/quote] Its the color scheme!!! Oldy but a goodie...under used and almost forgotten...nice ...

I'll pass this on to a few fellow TU members that maybe interested!! Thx

The YR is in the line for round valley...spruce is empty

It's a summer job. Did you expect $50/hr.?

I bet the pay rate relies on multiple sliding scales.

Thanks everyone, I'll be here all week.

Fatherhood has not been kind to your sense of humor, I see.

It sure sounds fishy!!

I get them big like that sometimes on my porch light. I'll take a picture next time I see a big one. Please, gentlemen. Can we not drift from the purpose of this post which was to justify the use of a sealed drag on 5-inch trout? Well ya'll need a fast, overlined 8 wt. to cast them giant midges als...

That stretch looks nice and wide open....gr8 job!!!

There used to be big wild brownies below the Glen Gardner but above the reservoir. Is that no longer the case?

Haha funny guy you've been gone a long time
