Mike hadn't got any sleep the night before so he was on a low tank of gas. We made the 2 1/2 hour jaunt north to a unforgiving place especially this time of year. The fishing was slow with just a few risers, Mike was determined to get his fish on streamers, and he was missing fish. With a few pattern changes he finally connected a couple nice rainbows. After a couple hours here we decided to drive further downstream to see what we could find. The thought of wading through 3 feet of snow and 300 yards to get to the river was a challenge. We hit a couple of nice holes were Mike was fishing about me and he had a couple hits but solid. Shortly after this I connected into a nice solid brown that almost tore the rod right out of my hand. We thought that fish fish had probably hit Mike's streamer than cruised down to where I was at and I connected with it. It sure made the long walk through the snow worth the trouble... and warmed our spirits as well. Nice to finally get out once again since it's been 6 months since my last adventure. Thanks again Mike, It was great to finally put everything aside and finally enjoy what I love to do.</span></p><p><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></p><p><span class="Apple-style-span" ><span class="Apple-style-span">Visit Mike's blog at </span><a href="http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span">http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/</span></a></span></p><p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; "><br /></span></p>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-8671439854428951032011-02-23T21:52:00.009-07:002011-02-23T22:54:14.307-07:00Jesse James 44 Mag 4/5 Custom------ Pre Order Done!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIcGh58GhwZViSrX5LpEGTWQkNU-v6_e-cAqwykbALiS7JoxfX5FmuOAoLwL-OO255_C3Aq7J9auIoTfR_uhyULRG6Tzbw5P8-u_8uwXXIhn8GZHqOkXHLEP-qU5eLnWMuKipcC-j5G4V0/s1600/btm.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 142px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIcGh58GhwZViSrX5LpEGTWQkNU-v6_e-cAqwykbALiS7JoxfX5FmuOAoLwL-OO255_C3Aq7J9auIoTfR_uhyULRG6Tzbw5P8-u_8uwXXIhn8GZHqOkXHLEP-qU5eLnWMuKipcC-j5G4V0/s400/btm.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577116034367454706" /></a><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; "><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.5em; ">Inspired by Jesse James and West Coast Choppers, the<a href="http://www.jessejamesreels.com/" target="_blank" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(51, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline; ">Jesse James Reel Company</a>‘s goal from the beginning was to design and build fly fishing reels with a strong design element that are also tool-like in their form and function.

You just cant pass up a deal when its presented to you. So a few days ago I had received one of those emails thats about a close-out or discontinued item. Well I fell victim to this pack. Now I have tried my fair share of packs, some I've liked and others a total piece of shit. Well I was curious of this pack and being that it was made by a well known company I thought crap lets see if this is something I'm gonna like.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Well I just got this pack yesterday and I can tell you that immediately I was impress by the quality of the pack. Plenty of pockets to stow away items with an ease to find them. The shoulder straps and padding fit perfectly and is very comfortable. The waist belt is padded well and I feel its constructed very nice. North Face does offer a internal water reservoir but didn't opt to go that route, I usually just carry a water bottle of something I didn't feel the need to purchase that. I feel this pack will suit me well I like the overall look and once its on it feels very comfortable so hopefully it will perform well, only time will tell. Later in the year I'll report back to this entry to let you know how it performed.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><br /></span></div><div><br /></div>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-35894479806485819762010-02-04T22:55:00.003-07:002010-02-07T18:03:14.159-07:00Cat Puke Skwalla<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwOUtZ6PVHcGWwsOvTji6JTYonTmq4IueiST9X2r814_rsMsk2VhkwOiHioxX1ILH9K_ldEEWcn9wtOxVVNDJSL-eGvGYoIZYnCG_aUYDSXyksck11PCLDqt4_1pwIrObzenXBeL6-9dpi/s1600-h/Picture+278.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435671597890187682" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwOUtZ6PVHcGWwsOvTji6JTYonTmq4IueiST9X2r814_rsMsk2VhkwOiHioxX1ILH9K_ldEEWcn9wtOxVVNDJSL-eGvGYoIZYnCG_aUYDSXyksck11PCLDqt4_1pwIrObzenXBeL6-9dpi/s400/Picture+278.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP4ipmmTfCC_KfgNPBjgOuM7UDmHzXJq9S9PBgeD-tq09jI3Ef_l7E8MIX5FcfktcZLlciexZ6rVPJWNhTMVK3Ae-lYvhCk-ebbD-5MgnJiu1WIUO7zBd0h0psIrj5MvaXA_xXaM0-noRY/s1600-h/Picture+276.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435671483024388290" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP4ipmmTfCC_KfgNPBjgOuM7UDmHzXJq9S9PBgeD-tq09jI3Ef_l7E8MIX5FcfktcZLlciexZ6rVPJWNhTMVK3Ae-lYvhCk-ebbD-5MgnJiu1WIUO7zBd0h0psIrj5MvaXA_xXaM0-noRY/s400/Picture+276.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>Tiemco 200R size 8</div><div>Self created adbomen</div><div>Montana Fly Web Wing -- Grey</div><div>Green Krystal Flash</div><div>Poly Wing in white</div><div>2mm Brown Foam</div><div>Homemade Blend of Golden Dubbing</div><div>Green/ Black Barred Mini Taurantula Legs</div><div>Light Green Clear Hollow Tubing</div><div>8/0 Tan Thread</div><div></div></div>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-18689800636634445922010-02-02T17:00:00.002-07:002010-02-02T17:03:41.566-07:00HB80 is out and we need your HELP!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih3Ccb7OUQG-1qljKY6gHrDhFCg7hdjDomygOcTSKCV4DTilJ5mV_prF7T9pni73gxOc3rsIjWmOWAZiG4BhlY9c0jYDdcr0agwxu0lNreWqKkZzq9Oddr59lBqzwqV2RQTHcPHqVWlPHu/s1600-h/Private+Property.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 100px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433800857824919970" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih3Ccb7OUQG-1qljKY6gHrDhFCg7hdjDomygOcTSKCV4DTilJ5mV_prF7T9pni73gxOc3rsIjWmOWAZiG4BhlY9c0jYDdcr0agwxu0lNreWqKkZzq9Oddr59lBqzwqV2RQTHcPHqVWlPHu/s400/Private+Property.jpg" /></a><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">HB 80<br />Received this email today from Bryan Gregson today and wanted to pass the news along.<br />for regular updates visit </span><a title="utah water guardians" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.utahwaterguardians.org?referer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.utahonthefly.com%2Fforums%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D22576');javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.utahwaterguardians.org');" href="http://www.utahwaterguardians.org/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:arial;">http://www.utahwaterguardians.org</span></a><br /><a href="http://www.flyfishingfrenzy.com/2010/01/13/4920/header/" rel="attachment wp-att-4922"></a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Utah Recreational Water user Bill is out!!! –> HB 80<br />Representative Fowlke released the much anticipated Recreational water Bill today!!<br />The process of this Bill started right after the end of last years session.

Although, not everyone got exactly what they wanted, all groups on both sides compromised and tried diligently to make this a win-win.

These boxes are very available through online craft stores and as well as drafting</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;">supply stores also. At the most you can be into a completed box for no more than 15 bucks. Now depending on the size of box your looking for I have bought the Medium Size box and using 2 sheets of 6mm foam and a hot glue gun you can duplicate the same box as Cliff does with only a fraction of the cost. Once I have the box open what I have done is using a larger piece of paper use this to draw yourself a template for where the foam will lie inside. Once this is done transfer that template onto the foam. You could use scissors to accomplish this but a utility knife works best. Now once you have the foam cut out from the template, use a ruler and cut some grooves into the foam. Make as many rows that you need to accommodate whatever patterns your trying to fill the box with. Once this is done get your hot glue gun and lay down a few rows of the hot glue and insert your foam into the box. This process shouldn't take to long to dry, once done you can load it with whatever patterns you need. </span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;">Good Luck building your own.</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;">I've listed a few places to start with.</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </div><div><a href="http://www.google.com/products?sourceid=navclient&rlz=1T4GGLJ_enUS347US347&q=artbin+Quick+View+Series+8010AB&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=qEITS9W6JpC2M8v56TM&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CCgQrQQwAw">http://www.google.com/products?sourceid=navclient&rlz=1T4GGLJ_enUS347US347&q=artbin+Quick+View+Series+8010AB&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=qEITS9W6JpC2M8v56TM&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CCgQrQQwAw</a></div>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-79634454329039771722009-10-11T21:31:00.006-06:002009-10-11T21:51:11.725-06:00Short but Sweet Stillwater<span style="font-family:arial;">The past couple of days I was in contact with Scott to see what he had planned for the weekend and to see if he could get out. There was talk about heading north into Southwest Wyoming but with the recent snow storms in the area and temps hovering in the high twenties I wasn't quite ready for chipping ice off the guides yet. So we had contemplated about heading into some Indian Land to try our luck for some pre-spawn brown but the plan was derailed since Scott couldn't reach anyone for his permit. So the decision was made to hit some stillwater action since the weather here was decent. Once we arrived it was partly cloudy but comfortable, the wind for the most part was calm. So we got the toons ready and we went through the checklist on what we needed on the water and off we were. The fishing was slow but Scott was able to connect with a Cutt on a chironomid close to shore. I was too far away to get back over to him for a photo, but I did witness the battle he had going from where I was. Shortly after witnessing Scott and his fish I soon connected on a nice Tiger which I would guess went roughly 18 inches or so. I got him on a surprise. I was casting and the streamer him the water fairly hard and just the quick this fish came up and hammered it, I don't know what he was thinking it was when it hit but hey!!! I'll take it. Soon after we both got on the scoreboard the wind came up and pushed us off the water. Even though it was short and sweet it was nice to get out and get some bendo. </span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2cp50FbP_DWSeW83jGw4mRz38OVQBmsYHjjdrCTvPKWE7kXejgjZFniNvwLuh3LJBr8LsEHMk0LA9lttF3fRNl-j8-HSeCMr_H4jCKJoUlNG5jUc1vVpqQusANYXl2EICsKRbQFhJT0q-/s1600-h/004.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391551736150112434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2cp50FbP_DWSeW83jGw4mRz38OVQBmsYHjjdrCTvPKWE7kXejgjZFniNvwLuh3LJBr8LsEHMk0LA9lttF3fRNl-j8-HSeCMr_H4jCKJoUlNG5jUc1vVpqQusANYXl2EICsKRbQFhJT0q-/s400/004.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5GqwvpdbhnHIIaIqFFG8NjE3C-kE3uiczKS3ySJFywQkNcgRcLXks7JeIs37NdYMudQDvPNME5YgfPIMwfEVwjSWq2CzALPYVMTcYM4Ps4XVVbtzQvT00vxIIyNqjiK3uPUVDZ-3dOnkM/s1600-h/002.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391551633740027058" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5GqwvpdbhnHIIaIqFFG8NjE3C-kE3uiczKS3ySJFywQkNcgRcLXks7JeIs37NdYMudQDvPNME5YgfPIMwfEVwjSWq2CzALPYVMTcYM4Ps4XVVbtzQvT00vxIIyNqjiK3uPUVDZ-3dOnkM/s400/002.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7DgtdgPDQECNG2MkYkbuLei-Y9tdahclJ7GRZMCB4PEVR-RRktoJ8m5BJgXCovgCyZg-kiI0dzpwULhyafVQ5Natg9gw6yxHkhcDgNkXL0_hXLxJuBaypZgeraMZXBrPscaIFez-CSgC0/s1600-h/003.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391551540948676402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7DgtdgPDQECNG2MkYkbuLei-Y9tdahclJ7GRZMCB4PEVR-RRktoJ8m5BJgXCovgCyZg-kiI0dzpwULhyafVQ5Natg9gw6yxHkhcDgNkXL0_hXLxJuBaypZgeraMZXBrPscaIFez-CSgC0/s400/003.JPG" /></a> <div></div></div></div>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-65518624961597074552009-10-02T16:07:00.003-06:002009-10-02T16:18:37.844-06:00October Caddis Series<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIenVExLwNMalO8Dg6AyvSzVilg-_XrwvGF3memQXE0cX02fb5r7bYQLaUfvPiXd-O-4A9-9ARVp6DBXZkFku8kOpSiaK4HK2g1_FCtfpo02v3Ftx7Ef9oouD1HQel4M-hPRvfStyVacn0/s1600-h/Picture+249.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388128282037918130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIenVExLwNMalO8Dg6AyvSzVilg-_XrwvGF3memQXE0cX02fb5r7bYQLaUfvPiXd-O-4A9-9ARVp6DBXZkFku8kOpSiaK4HK2g1_FCtfpo02v3Ftx7Ef9oouD1HQel4M-hPRvfStyVacn0/s400/Picture+249.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7ef7r0L0BYZYheORMPefgPAulROpPCVyD2w9fzc0NAl0BaZD-xXmkWDdhSqGLUs_5a_qqhY3adJRmrB4lbe_hNkX5Cs9GUvCmb0tbpow1l34LsuvcdyI5rFHjFjT8WEDq_IwohpnaWaRK/s1600-h/Picture+253.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388128175000716514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7ef7r0L0BYZYheORMPefgPAulROpPCVyD2w9fzc0NAl0BaZD-xXmkWDdhSqGLUs_5a_qqhY3adJRmrB4lbe_hNkX5Cs9GUvCmb0tbpow1l34LsuvcdyI5rFHjFjT8WEDq_IwohpnaWaRK/s400/Picture+253.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgl-u6PeQaQCgJGlCiLsitP-NIRloP79OJH09jYRy0iSM22irG0O9UIW76lvlysI7ZgbvP2hoR1ROeSQCDsVSr1vAFZQTG-_28hOKkQYZDlhy0XVM6yGC-wkjShuIvJlZqGQ89o3FVkv7h/s1600-h/Picture+255.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388128063457941858" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgl-u6PeQaQCgJGlCiLsitP-NIRloP79OJH09jYRy0iSM22irG0O9UIW76lvlysI7ZgbvP2hoR1ROeSQCDsVSr1vAFZQTG-_28hOKkQYZDlhy0XVM6yGC-wkjShuIvJlZqGQ89o3FVkv7h/s400/Picture+255.jpg" /></a><br /> <span style="font-family:arial;">Some of the best caddis hatches can happen in October, so today I sat down and tied a few.

I did some camping and some riding on the North Slope of the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Uintas</span> earlier this summer and I found so many streams and creeks that I knew I had to return to fish this area. The streams are so clear and you could spot the trout just waiting on a nicely thrown hopper pattern. I've been compiling maps of the area as well as what trout are in these <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">drainage's</span>. I have a few places planned even on the South Slope of the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Uintas</span> as well.

I've got out</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">a few </span><span style="font-family:Arial;">times with Mike <a href="http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/">http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/</a> and instead of doing all the copying</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">and pasting i thought I'd just throw the link from our last <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">outing</span>. Here is the entry from Mike</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">on his blog. <a href="http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/2009/07/pat-m-makes-apperance_12.html">http://trouttripper.blogspot.com/2009/07/pat-m-makes-apperance_12.html</a></span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">Work this past summer has put a huge damper on the fishing this year and being that I've been</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">working out of state the opportunities to get out have been slim. Anyways I hope I can get into</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">the swing of things again and take advantage of the fall streamer fishing that is just around the </span><span style="font-family:Arial;">corner. Here is a pattern that is probably not new to anyone if they have followed Kelly Galloup</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">and his <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">innovative</span> streamer patterns. Instead of the T/A Rainbow Series I'd thought I'd come up</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">with the T/A Brown Trout pattern which I'm hoping for some good result. As you can see I took some pictures of the materials that I used. The only think I did was I <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Incorporated</span> the Brown</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">Trout colors on the pattern. Its almost time for the throwing huge streamers and looking for big</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">hungry trout as this time of year can be the best the year has to offer.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4uR4ccX-tPVvUNa0B6g-dxLv0qYF4foaQATMI50xCVn0FGoqsXdFmu3soFPXjhM9m4bJyPmJSRxemII7a-dMOdwnZnRqC7ulIfmWHtdvFvGncOQIW_dXroyhDIf9slCCzXlvMP88USuqH/s1600-h/patterns090.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381073701848500690" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4uR4ccX-tPVvUNa0B6g-dxLv0qYF4foaQATMI50xCVn0FGoqsXdFmu3soFPXjhM9m4bJyPmJSRxemII7a-dMOdwnZnRqC7ulIfmWHtdvFvGncOQIW_dXroyhDIf9slCCzXlvMP88USuqH/s400/patterns090.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWpTA5-4MJZXKYSANTkaTJxyD3IpEKVtO5op6FVjb05U1ew46UTK0Cb4pYczdKRhAmFegEyWH283Goio5AfGqQMVdLY0aroPJRpl8ZrX86zzjnTwjPSkhfqUmqZOpNrk6n90-58bh7fClG/s1600-h/patterns094.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381072512011999058" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWpTA5-4MJZXKYSANTkaTJxyD3IpEKVtO5op6FVjb05U1ew46UTK0Cb4pYczdKRhAmFegEyWH283Goio5AfGqQMVdLY0aroPJRpl8ZrX86zzjnTwjPSkhfqUmqZOpNrk6n90-58bh7fClG/s400/patterns094.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm2oKwOWcYYPNJNFDjNRjVrFW23snzBfsZpKAfAnjgz4hsYS5vT4OZZ3FVQ4lPiMf1U2fL5OJ6LVGyheZRuXFMWRJaECl5gNgEJii1TBCRpv8xdsVXmKrifn4ukF5ZpO7tFhKHLInuiETE/s1600-h/patterns095.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381072349625251634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm2oKwOWcYYPNJNFDjNRjVrFW23snzBfsZpKAfAnjgz4hsYS5vT4OZZ3FVQ4lPiMf1U2fL5OJ6LVGyheZRuXFMWRJaECl5gNgEJii1TBCRpv8xdsVXmKrifn4ukF5ZpO7tFhKHLInuiETE/s400/patterns095.jpg" /></a>Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623254187619854596noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581213052710026438.post-49910087038736318092009-05-02T15:08:00.005-06:002009-05-02T15:26:54.853-06:00Flymph Swap 1 [2009] images are online<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaurV0S_pYzXly8f6wFOBFNqvv3kUS7XrMvm3dmlpZ6xkSUxOsTewhNULqtq1zeIAZVX9WrBlFg_iJ2ur7-oZrvMF6k3b3rHdYrIKMIxqGKIV0euWPc_r0ig7BxqJ7fSV1hvTq6NzF0EtM/s1600-h/baetis_buster-pat_murphy-pat_m.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331340091766918546" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 266px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaurV0S_pYzXly8f6wFOBFNqvv3kUS7XrMvm3dmlpZ6xkSUxOsTewhNULqtq1zeIAZVX9WrBlFg_iJ2ur7-oZrvMF6k3b3rHdYrIKMIxqGKIV0euWPc_r0ig7BxqJ7fSV1hvTq6NzF0EtM/s400/baetis_buster-pat_murphy-pat_m.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">So this past winter I've been engrossed in tying soft hackles which I believe are very underrated patterns out there.

Well that date came and I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">wasn't</span> able to make that <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">rescheduled</span> trip so I was out. So Corey, Doug and Garth decided they were going to go to the Green minus me. So low and behold and Utah Spring storm canceled their plans and the weekend after we had discussed the option of hit the Green River below <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Fontenelle</span>. The drive was further with a slim chance of catching a decent size fish. They were there we just had to weight our options to see if the extra 2 hours of driving would be worth it. Now Doug in the meantime is checking flows all over the place to see how the early season run-off is shaping up. So at work while I'm busier than hell I get an email from Doug saying.. "I think I want to go Tribal!!" well that sparked a phone call and after some quick discussion we decided the flows are really good and maybe since it would be <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">interesting</span> to check out we decided to get our Ute Indian Permits and have at it. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">At this point Doug is calling Garth to leave a day early to see how things look. Throughout Friday now less at work I called Doug in hopes of having reception on his phone and low and behold he answered. So I asked him how were things looking and he said " I've landed a 20 brown 20 minutes ago and Garth has lost 2 so its looking pretty good being that they have only been on the water for about an hour. So I called Corey to relay the message and than both Corey and myself get another email stating to call the Ute Grocery Store and buy those permits!!! Right away I call and get mine set-up and I shot an email to Corey stating... " Yo man I got mine!!!" Right back at me Cor has got his as well. So the plan was to meet up with Cor at 7am to pick him up. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">So Sat. morning rolls around and I meet up with Cory with the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">excitement</span> of whats <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">in store</span>. Its a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">beautiful</span> morning and the drive was quick. Talking about past trip and new ones to come the time quickly flashes by. Before we know it we are in town about an hour earlier than we were suppose to. I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">couldn't</span> figure it out. How did we make such great time? So anyways we were not sure where <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Garth</span> and Doug were staying the night so we stopped at a gas station grabbed a few things and we try <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Doug's</span> cell again.... no answer.....crap!!! minutes later Corey's phone rings and it was Doug. Surprised at our early arrival, he gave us directions to dive of a motel that they were staying at and met up with them. This was the first time for both Corey and myself to meet Garth which by the way is one crazy and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">funny</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">dood</span>. Well our game plan was for 2 of us to fish high on the reservation while the other two fished the lower area.

So what we did was since we drove 2 vehicles we decided to park mine upstream to get it later in the day and we <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">drove</span> Garth's rig and dropped off Doug and Corey in the middle section of river so they <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">would</span> be working their way towards my truck.

Well after losing a few rigs to the tree behind us and some wind knots we moved upstream to some other holes which <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Garth</span> said they are fail proof. We should get something out of the run up higher. Well after walking upstream and finding the hole produced zilch zero squat!! Well at this moment Garth realized he <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">didn't</span> have his phone on him so he decided to walk back over to his truck and grab his phone to see how the fishing was for Corey and Doug. To our <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">surprise</span> they were having a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">Hogfest</span>!!!

Once we parked and decided to move into a nice run <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">Garth</span> hooked up right away with a decent Brown. That brown fell victim to a San Juan that Doug tied up and it worked great!! Even on the phone call to Doug earlier said that they were <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">smoke'n</span> on San Juan's and that we should try them. I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">wasn't</span> ready to give up the big stone and soft hackles just yet so we walked up further and finally met up with Doug and Corey.</span><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7jHu574jfOSHQbDFff3IH8e8o8DmvtepFpOV54sw9IlpkyPjK17C53FPVYj5JcQfJrXPmzD1vlZtsuVY7cXzOoprbkK7arhFG_R-lAX-xLKG_WUrR8R_1avT_83HO1GUvx20hamR2P1l8/s1600-h/012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327681641353966562" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7jHu574jfOSHQbDFff3IH8e8o8DmvtepFpOV54sw9IlpkyPjK17C53FPVYj5JcQfJrXPmzD1vlZtsuVY7cXzOoprbkK7arhFG_R-lAX-xLKG_WUrR8R_1avT_83HO1GUvx20hamR2P1l8/s400/012.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcdsmWAN1hjLFotOsA3GbOpjwzg0AEIr0CbOYxMPkuTH6FRpPJ4Ha6xeVFWwuRxx9Zmv6PR0-rUQNvT2FGLWumUVLevrR0uVQNLXhbPkXDRYVfxw3i6F0Cvg8GzG3B6TzYzGCb5qqEVErD/s1600-h/014.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327681542067227570" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcdsmWAN1hjLFotOsA3GbOpjwzg0AEIr0CbOYxMPkuTH6FRpPJ4Ha6xeVFWwuRxx9Zmv6PR0-rUQNvT2FGLWumUVLevrR0uVQNLXhbPkXDRYVfxw3i6F0Cvg8GzG3B6TzYzGCb5qqEVErD/s400/014.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1nXsCTIBz1hsrVMM3-YEfwtyaEWX2Xnq61hFe4Z8LNUzD0jUhXCLd-NWyhjD5bDY255p7a1fBRQ6F3hjsmjWAKlumReSyhnOZV7QrOJzHxPlcLs2pPS9_ZRYL4YuzWKM6BNTA2usDwPDT/s1600-h/015.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327681448665506706" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1nXsCTIBz1hsrVMM3-YEfwtyaEWX2Xnq61hFe4Z8LNUzD0jUhXCLd-NWyhjD5bDY255p7a1fBRQ6F3hjsmjWAKlumReSyhnOZV7QrOJzHxPlcLs2pPS9_ZRYL4YuzWKM6BNTA2usDwPDT/s400/015.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">To my <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">surprise</span> there were Crane Flies in the river.

I simply had a change of heart and decided to totally switch up on what to use. I decided to throw on a Red Copper John size 16 and a Flashback <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25">WD</span>-40 size 20. Knowing from the past that this river for some weird reason is always a small fly producer. I worked my way to the boulder in the middle of this run. casting upstream and letting it drift on either side of that submerged rock you see in the middle of that run. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26">OK</span>, so I'm drifting my rig and all of a sudden my junk stops... Thinking I had probably snagged the bottom of that damn boulder, I rip back in hopes that I can get out of my jam. Well <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27">that's</span> when things go crazy...Suddenly that snag starts to move and its got some serious weight behind it. Now keep in mind I have about 30 yards of fly line at my feet and the current is somewhat strong through here. That fish or what ever the hell it was started to move upstream real <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">sloooow</span>. I've got that damn 5wt bending back into it self now. At the same time I'm trying like a SOB to get that fish on the reel so I can work him against the drag so now I'm <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">trying</span> to to reel in all this line while <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">maneuvering</span> this heavy bastard. I finally get the line on the reel and now the fish has changed directions now and is heading downstream. I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31">couldn't</span> see the fish from this vantage point due to the sun's reflection on the water. Not sooner than that the hook come out of the fish and all is lost. My heart just fell apart as I was at least hoping for a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32">glimpse</span> of that toad. My after thought on the whole ordeal was I bet it took the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33">WD</span>-40 and since it has a small gape that I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34">didn't</span> get a decent hook set on that damn <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35">boney</span> ass jaw of it. So next cast yielded somewhat of the same results but this time the fish came out of the water and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36">Shazam</span>!!! Off as well. Needless to say I was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37">fishless</span>, but the thrill of hooking into something that large was insane!! I know its out there what ever it was and it was a shame I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38">didn't</span> get a chance to see its <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39">true</span> size.
