What a fabulous day. My friend Jay played a big role in me getting into fly fishing many years ago. We also coached high school football for close to 30 years. Our kids have been lifetime friends. They all grew up together!
Well we both crawled out of bed early and headed west. When we got to our fishing destination, it was -3C. We walked for about an hour then started to fly fish. It was definitely a nymphing game until the bugs became active. The cutthroat we not too active early, even nymphing was slow. As the air temperature warmed and the bugs got going, so did the cutts. We saw BWOs, very small PMDs and a smattering of flavs. Larger dry flies did not get too much attention but tiny stones, parachute adams and a smaller royal wulff did.
It was an awesome day. I enjoyed being on the water with my friend. We had a lot of laughs and sorted out all of the world problems.
