Tough Day

TIME: 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM

WEATHER:  Partly cloudy, low 90s,

WATER CONDITIONS:  0 Units

LOCATIONS FISHED:  Norfork River, Island above Ackerman/Handicap Access to near Otter Creek (at McClellan’s)

ROD USED:  10’ 4 wt Winston

FLIES USED:  Wayne’s Brown Fly, #14 Norfork River Gray Scud, #20 Tungsten BH Flashback Red Copper John

HATCHES:  Midges

OTHER:  Fished with Wayne.  It was tough fishing, today, at least for me.  I missed fish, the leader, strike indicator, tippet, and fly shared entirely too much togetherness, and a good dose of OCD wasted countless minutes trying to unravel things.  I ended up with 9 fish, maybe.  Wayne, on the other hand, caught fish one after another.  It’s time to do something about the long leader.
