SENSITIVITY NEEDED
I was going to the second pond that the landowner had told me about. He has been watering out of this pond. This pond is down about four feet. I had a little trouble getting the canoe into the pond because there was a lot of mud around the edge.
Don’t ask me why, but I only had two rods with me. One bamboo with a white boa yarn leech on it and a graphite with an experimental fly on it. I decided to use the white boa yarn fly first. I want to go with a fly that I know first to see if the fish are biting.

Hi Rick,

Enjoyed the article. I am a very average, at best, fisherman, and I wonder how many fish I have failed to catch because of the “light bite” you write about here. I am quite sure I would have caught virtually no fish, whereas you caught quite a few. As always I learn a lot by reading your feature articles.

Thanks and regards,

Gandolf

These are my favorite articles to read on here! Nice work. Makes me want to find a place to try warm-water…
