Tube.
I'm hoping to get out Wednesday with my tubing partner. Your account of your trip with your wife to Yuba has got me "stoked". I've had my tube inflated for several days now with no evidence of a leak so it must have been a sticky Boston Valve.
The flesh of those rainbows is nice and orange. Must be some crustaceans as well as minnows in their diet. The last trout I caught looked like that. I took 15 crayfish out of her and about half of them were still alive.
We're limited to flyfishing on the ponds we fish but I've taught my buddy to push the envelope. We discovered the "bows" like tube jigs. And based on your success with the spinners I'm going to toss some flyrod spinners and "beetle spins". I'm gonna have to check out Bass Pro and see if I can get some tiny roadrunners. I've been flycasting tiny jigs for years now but have never used the Roadrunners. They look like a winner. I'm hoping they never get around to banning lead up here in Ontario. There's talk of a ban on the sale. If they ban the usage it will be
indeed. Have you ever made jigs from tin or are you still okay with lead down there?
Thanks to your Yuba account and the great pictures I can't wait for Wednesday.
