A Great Day Was Had By All

TIME: 1:15 PM to 3:30 PM

WEATHER:  Clear, mid 70s

WATER CONDITIONS:  0 Units

LOCATIONS FISHED:  Norfork River, Island above Ackerman/Handicap Access

ROD USED:  8’ 9” 5 wt Winston Joan Wulff Favorite

FLIES USED:   #14 Norfork River Scud (Olive) and #20 Red/Silver Zebra Midge

OTHER:  Fished with Kay.  This afternoon was one of those rare days that Kay and I fish together, and it is always thrilling to share this wonderful pursuit of beautiful trout.  We fished close to home, and caught lots of fish, mostly in skinny, fast water.  Kay caught 7 fish for the afternoon, and I managed to take about 3 dozen, but no big fish, though I did catch rainbows, cutthroats, and a couple of browns.  The best fishing was from the left descending bank where few people fish.  The leaves are beginning change and combined with our fantastic fall weather, it made for a great afternoon on the water.
