kemper Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Well, I have four final exams looming (ever closer) next week so I did what any sane steelheader would do. I went fishing to er...clear the mind. Ya, thats it. Found the water to be BEAUTIFUL and perfect, and hit a fish on the first drift (smaller one, no pic) and then it went quiet for a while. We continued downstream until a deep pool that no one fishes because of the big tree in the back of it, but the secret is that there is actually no branches under the water, just on top...shhh. Five minutes in the action started, Ill let the pictures talk I have to study. It was a great day to be on the water! sorry bud, cut your head off the background gave away the hole! Fish were hard and fast, really fresh. It was a great day, although between the two of us we probably missed more than ten fish. Hooksets were not our strongsuit on this day. thats just what I needed, calculus will be a breeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

douG Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 (edited) The trick is to pick the right substitution, kemper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_by_substitution. You'll be fine. BSing is an art, that's what I learned after I forgot all the math. Edited November 29, 2008 by douG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehg Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Good to see some nice fish caught there. Hopefully those couple of hours took your brain off calculus, even though when missing some fish you were thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemper Posted November 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Nice steel........ so what was the bait of choice Roe or some of those sweet homemade jigs? Never got the jigs in the water, too much action on the roe...although I would have liked to have hooked up more. Couldnt sting em today, I think because I was using monster size bags and regular size hooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jace Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 (edited) Great stuff Kemper! It's not procrastination from studying....it's clearing your head so you can retain information when you do get back to studying....LOL. Some real nice fish!!! When i was in school i always thought of my knowledge as a having finite quantity, so anything new would naturally push out things i learned in the past. For that reason, i was always paranoid of doing too much between studying and the tests. ahaha. And after each final i reached for the purge handle to free up memory slots.

forrest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Don't do trout fishing but the frequency of the Kemper reports get me thinking trout can be caught anywhere at anytime. Is that all Grandriver or is the area full of tributaries? The best way to retain information, sorry I don't have the reference: Study for a period of time 1-2hours, some people can do more. Then go and do something routine, something your used to that lets you reflect on the knowledge, like fishing. It works for me. forrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
