Well, when it's 50 degrees in February and sunny, with no wind.....you go fishing. While folks are waiting for opening day and the spring stockings....some waters are full of hungry holdovers.

fly tying and fishing ghillie..
I used to fish the Breeches back in the late '70's and early 80's it was good stream to fish then. I have a print by Robert Abbett of the Boone House and the dam.
Looks as if you had a stellar day.
Good looking fishies, Ralph.
Looked around your site for a while and didn't find a reference to the Golden Retriever. Could you post some more information on that one ??

The fish are always right.
Nice fish! It's 65 outside, little winter stoneflies are buzzing all around and I'm stuck inside re-modeling a bathroom. Thanks for the pics.
Regards,
Scott
John, The Golden Retriever is a fly out of Mossy Creek Outfitters in Virginia. It's an excellent pattern and just plain old works. It's grown on me.
