Hello all
and thanks for checking in. Wowza!!!! What an incredible spring we are having.
The winter seemed to drag on later than normal but when the fish came out of
their slumber it was on like Donkey Kong. After careful observation, I am
pretty sure we lost some of our larger fish last summer but the number of 14 to
20 inch fish seems to have increased considerably.Over the last few weeks the
fish seem to be finishing their courtships and like “most men”, they are moving
on to gorge themselves. And as if God had it planned out all the time, the BWO’s
seem to be more than happy to give the fish what they want. Timing is
everything!!!!!
I have been compulsively watching the flows
knowing that these incredible conditions won’t be lasting long, so I will throw
in another shameless plug, if you have ever considered booking a trip to learn
more about how to catch these fish, as soon as you watch this video a minimum
of five times, get to a phone and call the shop…
We have worked on this video for the last few
weeks in hope of making this the most entertaining and goodlooking flyfishing
video of all time. I like to think we got close but I just didn’t have enough
quality videos of Cat and Winston, oh well we still think it’s great. We
learned a lot going through the spring video footage: one, we have some
incredible friends, two, I have an incredible wife, three we have an incredible
fishery, and last, that Winston really likes getting his picture taken.
I wanted to introduce our Spring 2014 video by
stealing and using a letter from one of my favorite 80’s movies, enjoy.
Dear
Blog Readers,
We accept the fact that we got to
sacrifice our entire Spring on the river because of whatever we did right, but
we think you are crazy if you don’t watch and share this video at least five
times. We want you you see "it and us" for what we are: in the simplest and most
convenient definitions. But in the making of this video we found that each one
of us is a Mechanic, a Rock Band, a Golden of Goldens, a Flyfishing Princess and a
Basket Case.
Does that answer your questions?
Sincerely, the flyfishing club.
As I finish writing I will kiss my keyboard, insert a sly grin on my face,
and lightly punch myself in the arm. And always remember, “ Don’t you forget
about us”. As always, Connell, Cat, Winston, John Bender and The Drift Fly Shop
thank you for reading and watching……
