I'm taking the day off tomorrow to fish. Heading down south. I'm in paralysis right now and can't decide where... I fished the Willow on Sunday and had a nice hendrikson hatch in the afternoon. Tempted to go back, but I've never been to the Neversink and it seems like this might be a good...

I was out deer hunting (bow season) in a steep woodlot here in Albany. Sitting by a tiny creek. 2 deer ticks, but no deer spotted. The leaves were wet from last nights rain, and I left my stump a little early and still hunted my way back to the jeep. About half way back, I ran into a critter...

Usually, I enjoy them. Especially after say 1pm when bikini's start floatin' by. I'll start with Sunday at 2pm. I was on fire--was casting weighted nymphs and setting the hook on trout at a rate of probably a dozen an hour. The trout didn't seem to mind the traffic--I'd earlier hooked what...

Damn! The wife and kids are out of town for a while, I have a 4-day weekend coming up and most everything is completely blown out. But was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!? So Plan B is in the works... Who's with me? (seriously).

Supposed to be better tomorrow. Going to hit the W. branch.

Haven't fished the Farmington much at all--the Housatonic is a little closer. Spent a couple days there this weekend and had a great time. A couple really nice rainbows, and I caught a bunch of wild stuff--Browns, salmon and a couple of these... Right before I took this photo, I spent 20...

Haven't been there before. Fished the west branch up near whiteface this weekend. I can't speak to the slow water, but here's how things went... Did most of my work in the fast pockets (which is what I enjoy) using the usual nymph suspects--nothing of note stood out. All produced average...

Floating line... I find myself dressing the line on the stream about every half hour when it starts to mend poorly. I wash it in the sink and dress it probably every 2nd or 3rd outing. Something I picked up from watching my dad as a kid. Thoughts?

I hit the local stream yesterday and it was running a bit bigger than normal. I also lost a good half dozen flies that I never would have thought would have broken off. On 3 occasions, I set the hook on a small (8") brown only to lose him seconds later and find a pigtail at the end of the...

I've been fishing the Kady in town a bunch over the last few weeks. I took some vacation days and hit it at sunrise this week... The fishing has been pretty good. Lots of small browns and more than a few decent rainbows. I picked up two of these the other day as well. #8 & 10 chocolate...
