Well sorry to disappoint Tom. The bite was so off,you would think there was no fish . 4:30 am til 11 and managed 2 small fish, on a leech pattern.. Not a single touch on top water. Talking to a couple of locals, the past few days have been terrible. There was a hatch. Terry managed 1 or 2. I totally stuck to the fly rods the whole morning. My shoulder and wrist are a bit sore. That 9wt is a work out. One thing I will be doing to my poppers is adding weed gaurds. Im sure if I had them on my poppers this morning, I might of gotten a few bites way back in the pads.
