Thread: Great morning ...

  1. Default Great morning ...

    This morning I was finnally able to make it to the river after work for about 40 mins. I brought with me a few flys I tied a few days ago. What fun, I landed my fist smalli after the second cast. This went on for the next 30 mins or so. A tottal of 14 fish was caught.... Man did I need that!!

    Thankyou all for the warm welcome. I am from Monterey ca, but moved from there this last march. I am now located in elk river mn. Two blocks from the missippi river. That is where I was fishing. At the moment the river is low here; you could walk almost across it without getting you knees wet... lol. Having a rocky bottom it is home to some nice smalli fishing. Currently I am using a 5wt rod floating line. I used a elk hair dun wich I fished as a wet fly. It was great on almost each cast as soon as my fly made it down below me I got a hit. Often they hokked myself. Trully great fun. I hope to make it there again this weekend.....
