hedgesd and i hiked around the lake and i immediatley hooked a nice one, but after fighting her for 30 seconds - she broke off - upon reeling in i saw my old fisherman knot making a loop in my line for a dropper had broke off . . ahhhhhhh then it happened again later - i talked to my dad later who had taught me that and he told me it wasnt for hooks - but for a lead sinkler so it would break off easy, and you wouldn't lose your rig ahhhhhhhhh! i had forgotten that! HEDGESD taught me a better method using a swivel and two snelled hooks and it worked great for him - check out his sweet brookie!

after i got my sh*# together, i caught a 16 inch rainbow and a bunch of new planters . . they all went back in to catch another day, as did the brookie above . . .
gotta git to work . . .later all
