Good Afternoon all, Once again I have to apologize in my being tardy with my reports. The past several weeks have been very busy and time doesn't always allow. The has been some changes in the past weeks. Finally they brought up the water flows between 2nd and 1st and also to Francis. The past few weeks we've had some well deserved rain. Which was a blessing and a curse. We needed more water in the system but certainly not all at once and not enough to discolor the water. Which has lead to a few hard tossing days. Although one of those was a float and although not a lot of fish takin there  were two very very large fish hooked.

We've been fishing a lot of scattered spots around. And always finding fish here and there. The small streams have dropped in temperature and the little natives have been as eager as ever and the bogs and ponds are starting to come back to life. Last week we've certainly have seen plenty of caddis as well as a few ant hatches on the floats. The air temp today has been cool and damp although not a short sleeve kind of day it's very conducive to fishing and with reports of some beautiful fish being caught. We're looking to another busy week and great hiking weather to get back into the small streams and get off the beaten path

Looking forward to seeing you all soon  and excited for some good stuff going on.

PEACE to YOU ALL,        Tight Lines,
   BILL   >;~"}}'>
