Lb Blue with Ken


I met up with one of my fishin Buddies, Ken Stone under cloudy skies at about 9:15 this morning and we were in the water in no time. Rippin lips, the water temp hasn’t changed for the fishin sure did. The fish were deeper today until just about 11 then, if you watched the water surface you could start to see the hatch coming off slowly and by 12:30 it was on small Caddis fluttering off the water. I finely made it to my spot and dropped anchor with my Sage Accel 3764 and size 14 Elk Hair Caddis I started pitching into the shallows, lots of rejection and only a couple of takes. I changed out to a sz, 16 and it was game on.
Ken made his way down and after letting him know just what I was doing soon he too were in the game.
For a while it was just about every cast weather you pitched and waited or pitch and twitch you were sure to get a strike.
After putting more than 15 in the net and loosing the size 16s I had I put on a prince nymph in the same size 16 and gave it a fling and almost the same thing. Fish after Fish. It was hard to pull away but I had to go you see I have a new leak in one of my pontoon and I was starting to list to one side pretty bad, bad enough that I went to the ores in order to get back to the launch. Back in the canyon at that time of day (3:30) it was getting dark.so it was time to check out. 
At home tomorrow I'l have to disassemble and find the hole, do the repairs and maybe just maybe think about put it away till next season or I can find the hole repair and take it out for a few hours just to see if I got it fixed,    

Happy Ken  netting one of his many!!
