Hex Hatch is on!

Hexagenia limbata

(Big yellow May Fly)

After finishing the floors it was time to fish.  Michele and I left the cabin about 5:30pm and fished until dark.  The Hex hatch is in full swing and someone in the boat had a pretty good night.  The cool thing about fishing hex nymphs is you don't know what is going to come to the net.  First fish was a brown trout, second was a salmon and the third fish ended up a smallmouth bass.  The last fish was a nice 22" Brown.  Next outing will be to Adin to scout the 30" bucks that have been seen on the ranch we will be hunting this year.  Maybe I will have photos of big bucks to post next.

Has it been almost 7 months?

It looks like it's been over six months since my last post.  Does that mean I haven't had any hobbies lately?  As you probably know we had a tree go through the roof this winter and I've been busy working on the cabin and other woodworking projects and I haven't had much time for fishing and hunting.  We just finished the floors today so I thought I should post a few photos and then hookup the boat and chase a monster trout tonight.  The Hex hatch has started and the big browns are waiting for us to show our offerings.  Hopefully I'll have photos of fish to post tonight.  Enjoy.
