you aint a kiddin about being a long drive, I live just 1/2 mile from the river and I am just about 3 miles from the rivers' point of origin.[cool]
flat rock is about 40+ miles as the crow flys from me and 100+ miles by boat [crazy]
them smallies turned on prity good my way this week too. they are hitting on top the water. its wild to watch their backs and dorcil fins breaking water just a few feet away from me like sharks before they hit.[shocked]
the kids came out to fish beside me today and was flat out amaized to see the bass jumping right out of the water to swallow ay my fly. while I enjoy seing the fish jumping and have come to expect it, the surpize for the kids is a reward of its own.[cool]
also a first for the kids to see today was a fly rod and how it works. it was a little to windy to make it work properly but what I could show them has them excited about fly fishing.[cool]
changing up on my styles of fishing has been productive for me and brought in a different species in the same area. seems the different fish are holding together but each like different presentations. even using the same lure or bait with a different presentation has made a difference on what i will reel in.[cool]
now if I could fix my short term memory and right down my experiments relults I would be able to match up my fish to my lure and how to... [sly]
