Ha. One of these days. Sounds good. Karel. Let me know about the flies, I have some in stock that have your name on them.

I’m going to be with Karel on this one, surprise. 🙂 Looks absolutely perfect for a 10′ rod 😉 More great pictures. Still trying to hash out the details for a Tenkara intro class in AZ in the next week or so. May have to hit you up for some more hoppers before you take off for vacation Ben, if you have some ready.

Yeah. No bueno. Tis the season and especially with the lack of water, high winds, and campers, I’m concerned it will only get worse. Cross your fingers.

Speaking of fires, your horseshoe two fire’s smoke is up here this morning. Crazy fire year I bet. We have a couple going on too.

Thanks Bruce. I love how all these fish are unique and the colors on all of them are different. Makes them fun to catch just to admire some of those colors. Thanks for the kind words.

Sorry Alex. I guess this gives me an excuse to head back up and gorge myself again. Next time…

I’m a little jealous of all your precipitation there Mark. We are extremely dry over here. Good luck on getting some time to chase some fish.

Thanks for the kind words David. Some of these creeks are pretty tight. Some of the others have been hit pretty hard by fires in the past and therefore are a little more open.

Ha. Thanks Karel. That stream really would be perfect. I don’t know if I really cast anything but my leader and tippet. Someday I’ll get into the Tenkara thing…
