The state had just put some big fish in there, and someone had reported the hoards had descended earlier in the week.
got there 6ish, and had a nice stretch to ourselves.
put on a nymphing rig and after 6 or so casts, had one on, not the best fish, but one of the nicer 'bows of the day
worked our way down stream and had a one more follow or two, after
realizing most of our action was coming at the slower tail outs we worked on
those.
flomo took position on a slow run coming around a rock and worked a nice
seam. not too long afterwards.....
he had a few fished hooked; among them was this beauty....
working our way up steam we hit the slower edges and got a few more nice
fish like this one

about 11 or so we saw some henrickson's start to move about and even some
spinners with egg sacks, on our way back to the car, i put on a egg sack
spinner. i concentrated on a pool where i had a follow on my strike indicator
earlier in the day, after my first cast, BAM:
called it a day on that note!
we headed home the long way and stopped at Long Trail for some Wings,
Burgers, and Coffee Stout that they only serve at the brewery
thanks for a great time flomo! :yay:

no need to read just look at pics
went back to the Jenkins river on monday
hoping to have another great experience
mission accomplished
got on the river about noon and started where pete and i had left the previous day
using BHprince nymph size 10 picked up this rainbow
my best looking rainbow of both days (in respect to fins)
long and slender compared to the hatchery fish



got this fish along side this rock which did not produce a fish the previous day for pete
also missed another from the other side of the rock

moved to another spot upstream
fished the rock(big rock with wood debris in pic below) downstream and did not get a hit
figuring there must be fish in there, i climbed to the top of the rock
looked down from the top of the rock and saw a huge rainbow
it ignored the prince and a slumpbuster. but jumped all over yellow conehead muddler
site fishing is so cool 8-)
being on the rock 15 feet above the fish and watching it take was fantastic
i slid down the back side of the rock to play the fish
got a great look at the rainbow before the hook pulled out
about 22inches and fat as me

the water was down about 3 inches from the previous day and fish were easy to spot and the wading was easier
at this time i was satisfied with my day and started to fish for only fish i could see
this technique probably was not the best for catching numbers of fish
but much more fun and rewarding
went up to another strecth and didn't fish just looked for fish
none sited
went downstream to another stretch and immediately sited a nice brown feeding below the surface
was able to get it to follow a bunch of flies but not take the flies
prince, muddler, slump, dries .......
it finally grabbed a soft hackle swung in front of it
and it was pricked for about 2 seconds
moved back up the bank to site fish and found 4-5 rainbows working near the head of a pool
hendricksons were really starting to show them selves (and probaly some other mayflies) 3:00 pm
picked up this fish from that group

3 fish were rising across the river at this point
this nice brown(19 inches) fell for a hendrickson dun
:yay:



was already late for getting home so the others will have to wait their turn

My dad sent me this a while ago...
" If the weight holds up it would be a new world record pike. It says 56 lbs., the old record was in Germany, 55 lbs. 1 oz
>
> . Caught on a river up North in Canada (Guess what river? The Saint Mary's). 56 lbs 56 inches the pike it's eating is 36 inches. It grabbed a 36" the pike while reeling it in- look at the pictures- you'll be amazed!! The 56 lbs pike was never hooked, it would not let go of the 36 inch pike"

great. poopie jokes
this long weekend went out saltwater fishing
trying for stipers in boston harbor and on plum island
boston harbor "haba"
copied post from fishing forum
Quote:
Been a long winter and I have been looking forward to this all winter, I love to fish for anything that swims but I have salt water in my blood and stripers are my favorite. Also had a Haba newbie on board which is my favorite. Love to show folks that Boston Harbor can produce some fish and is actually pretty nice spot.
Had Veterans Solid and Newbie flomo on board. The High tide wad 5AM, we were on the water out of Winthrop by 6AM. Water was cold 49F , very little bird activity. Motored over to the Neponset River and found warmer water ( 51-54F) and birds and fish. Not the usual bite you would expect to see right now but fish where there none the less. I would say the Haba is 2 weeks behind. The weather was calling for Small craft advisory starting at 1PM. It is rare to have a Small craft advisory in the Haba but when there is I always seem to be there! Solid, PW, SteveH, Wetfly action, Swede ,Vossman can attest to how nasty it can get in a place that is usually has lake like conditions. Today it was windy , like 20-30 SW , waves in the 1-3ft range. I Have a system down where you can FF in these conditions . Basically short casts into the wind and drifting.
Flomo picked this up quick and compared it to rubber worming, he was the high hook of the day with a Keeper to his name.
Doubles Were Pretty Common Today

No Small Fish Today, All were 20” and Up




The Bigun of the Day, 28 ½”


Codzilla! I Hate this thing but I Know deep down I will pay to ride on it some day, it is just one of those things!
http://www.bostonharborcruises.com/codzilla_main.html

Also Saw What Looked Like Charlie Moore out there in a Boat Called the Cod Father
We Fished till Noon and all had enough of the wind and called it a day, many more good ones to come

Warpe, did you weigh the walleye in the bottom pic? Looks like 5-6 pounds maybe?
I was in a steelhead/walleye tourney this weekend on Lake Erie. We caught some nice eating steelhead but no one from my party broke the leaderboard...the biggest walleye was almost 13 pounds. Ridiculous.

So, I'm 31 and thanks to a lack of nearby fishable waters and an inattentive father, I know very little about fishing, but have 2 small boys and don't want to raise them as total ignorants. How does one learn to be a mildly competent fisherman in a reasonably efficient way? I'm thinking finding a guy who is competent and offer to buy all the beer to go fishing with him might be a start, but if anyone has other useful suggestions I'd appreciate hearing about it.

So you click their picture and then you get their money?
