Waiting for the snow to melt in Montana. It's warmer here, a little anyway. The O is still high, wasn't happening. The other two are happening a little, at times, when the wind stops. Not for long.
Low and Clear
PMD's in the House!
Windy
Well Received
Great pre-hatch
For the BWO's
A favorite drift
Slashing eats on the Mahogany late afternoon
All over the damn place
Last known photograph taken on Silver Creek. He wasn't happy.
Jim: Looks like you are catching even with some adverse conditions. Past 3 Octobers here have been winter like, even worse, High Winds, day after day, and weak Baetis hatches. I'm going to have to re-think saving vacation time for this time of yr and just take it in the summer instead. Good luck with rest of trip and Tarpon angling. bob
Ya, I miss summer, and it was pretty short this year. But it's definitely less crowded now. Trade-offs. Today, with the water covered in BWO's and not another fisherman in sight (On the MO no less!), I was imagining warm hands and PMD's. And the damn wind . . . Its been blowing every day for the last few weeks, except during today's snow flurries. Water is lowest its been all year. No runoff. Trade-offs. Sure miss the long days and multiple sessions. Trade-offs. Fish both seasons!
