Year Round Fishing

[windyscotty]

They are back at it again at Pleasant Valley fishing to their hearts content. It couldn't be nicer after the new little snow with super blue skies against the colorful rock on the Chalk Bluffs. The water is low making it even better for fly fishing. Quite a few people were down there fishing today.

Were they catching???

[windyscotty]

The fifty people I asked said, "no." Then I went up to the reservoir and asked the fifty people who were fishing there. They said, "No, we just had to get out of the house."

So I wouldn't recommend going there, because nobody catches anything. They just come to practice and talk about how archaic life is.

Sounds like a diversion technique to me OGT.

When fishing the lower Owens in winter and the ice buildup on your line guide gets to be too much, just dip your rod into the water, it will de-ice temporarily. Or go sit in the truck with the heater on.

You want to keep a stiff rod and not let it go limp.

I agree, there's something fishy about that story for sure...

Now that's a fish tale if I ever heard one Windy...

Never had a problem catching fish at PVR , just catching big ones now that's the problem...

[windyscotty]

You have to use the big Carpenter Ant eggs that the old fishermen dig out of the ground when they are dormant. Like right now.

Told to me by Marcello Vargas, who never catches anything but big fish at PVR. He would show me the fish just for proof.
He said it is an old Paiute trick and works every time.

You didn't hear this from me. I want to keep what little hair I have left. Comprende?

Steelhead season opened today on the Wenatchee River near me. I have my salmon/steelhead endorsement.. now, if only that meant it guranteed me to catch fish.

The district ranger called in sick today... then he called back and asked me to look up the special fishing regs... LOL

Good for him. You told him it's legal to shoot them on opening day right?

[Snowave]

No, but I did threaten to tell the rest of the office he's out fishing, and not sick... if he didn't bring me a fish.

[Paradise Guy]

Got my new license and new line on my reels. Ready to go next time Im up...

Whenever that will be...
