Rick,
I am new to the bulletin board, but have been reading your articles for awhile (and they have helped me alot in panfishing). I am curious of how you got those crappie and bream to strike your fly in a snow storm. Do you have any good winter techniques?? Here in Alabama the best i have done in winter is strip a #8 royal coachmen-wet, over the edge of a mud flat, and picked up a couple of bream on the deep side. But, as you probably know, it doesnt get very cold (hasnt snowed in the past two years). Thanks for any help
