Instead of Working











































































































































I was on call for work today so scott and i stayed close in case i got a call. the weather has been in the high 30's all week and today was no different. it was perfect out for a mid-january so i rigged up with streamer. the water was still pretty low and i could not move any fish on a couple of different patterns. meanwhile scott was roping the fish on a pink grub type cheech pattern. i reluctantly gave up on the streamer fishing and switched to a nymph rig. a pink san juan worm and a furry fucker combo did not fail me. we were on the water from 9:30 till 3 and managed a little over a dozen fish between the 2 of us.some of these pics are mine and some are scott's.
