Not half bad for crappy phone pics, especially considering the weather...would have loved to get a close up pic of that beast that spat yer hook right next to the boat.
Like I always say, though...it's not the big ones you've landed that get you up in the morning to go fishing...it's the big ones that get away that get you up in the morning to try again!
Mebbe forgetting the camera was the good omen for the day...though having the cam in the boat the rest of the week sure didn't hurt our success none!
Back at it tomorrow...at the rate I'm going on orders and such, I'll be heading to the river with no sleep tonight.
The things we do for our chrome mistresses of the river...
Fish on...
Todd
P.S. Get yer ass back up here soon, Doc...we'll get that big one for you yet!

Cool report and the pics look just fine but....................... .... and crackered three opportunities on steel. Just the day before my buddy Crush Daddy (member since 3/30/06, 2 posts ), whom you met last month on the crk, hooked a hot buck deep in the bowels of a tailout. We had no choice but to yard him thru the ripple and into the next run. He fought the buck beautifully working all the angles to the point that I even mentioned that it was too bad Doc wasn't there to see it as you would have commended him on his fighting skills. Ah-Never mind Gotta agree with Todd. Get your redneck cowboy ass back in the saddle soon! Preferably this weekend.

I thought Todd never taped his fish and I also thought using a sickle siwash was a guaranteed fish in the net........ Hmmmmm......

Another great day on the water and finally had the opportunity to meet the Doc, great guy who was hooking em like crazy but the fish gods would not allow a pic for some reason...Ripster did a fine job rowing and I even jumped on the sticks just to warm myself up and helped get ripley into a toad. Realizing we left the camera half way to the ramp we remarked that we were purty sure to have a great day and we did. Gotta love April...cheers

And I thought you only took feathers and fur for bait . . . wha' happened? Fur and feathers is all I came prepared with. (Or unprepared as the case may be) Was told temps and conditions weren't conducive to the swung fly, so I mooched a bunch of Ripley's gear and let the master row me to all the hotspots to try his unique version of swingin' spoons from a moving boat. Spoondoggin'.... it's what all the cool kids are doin' these days. Who'da'thunk'it?
