Now that the weather is cooling down the red sea trips will become more frequent. we went again last thursday and although the fishing was shitty i still managed a couple of fish, not sure the species though. on a positive note, one of the guys wagered me 100 saudi rhiyal that he would catch the first, the most and the biggest fish, my wallet is heavier now. once again it was the usual getting loopy, bbqing, snorkling and fishing. until this coming thursday.........mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-2373147098331313092012-08-20T07:00:00.000-07:002012-08-20T07:02:01.033-07:00Firsts From the Red Sea<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've been on a salt binge lately but not familiar with the patterns. i've ordered a butt load more shit so should be able to crank out a much bigger variety when the shipment arrives. until then it's been a lot of clousers and some random shit.mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-52547595035033354262012-06-06T03:11:00.005-07:002012-06-06T03:11:55.525-07:00A Summer Warmup VideoThis is from joe over at evolution anglers. to bad i'm going to miss fly fishing this summer<br />

Since i am in saudi arabia for the year i won't have a chance to use up my streamers so i've got a year to replenish any stock that i need to. while i'm here i am going to focus on trout streamers, musky/pike flies, salt water patterns and a few lake streamers. there should be one or two opportunities for me to get out to the red sea to see what i can come up with and i due get a vacation at about my 6 month mark where i'll be going back to utah but other then that the fishing will be bleek. my goal is to have my dining room table completely filled with flies at some point here.mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-59761776636657957112012-05-03T19:07:00.000-07:002012-05-03T19:07:01.447-07:00The River Cleared<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The last couple of days the river had come up a bit and muddied. i took a gamble after work and drove to check it out. i was relieved to see the clarity so i drove to spot and rigged up. a smaller white streamer was driving them crazy and that made the action fast and furious. i managed 2 fish that measured 19" and a few that were 16-18"'s. the weather was a bit overcast and a light sprinkle was present for awhile. the fishing was pretty good for the 2 hrs that i fished.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;">After work i hooked up with jon. my hopes weren't very high that we'd have a place on the river to fish since as we drove all we saw was muddy waters. once we got above the apparent source we found an access point with nobody on it. the fishing was pretty good for myself but jon did not fair so well. he finally did get off the snide though. most of the fish landed were 17-18 inches but i did manage one that was 21". i did not see this fish take cause as my fly had finished it's swing and was sitting in about 6" of water i turned to talk to jon and the big female nailed my streamer. after we finished that section of river we drove down a bit lower and fished new water to both of us and it totally sucked. that's the way it goes sometimes.</span><br />

I was fortunate enough to encourage the wife to join me on the river. she enjoys coming out with me but usually only when it is really warm. the weather wasn't to bad today, but not as warm as she generally likes it. i took her someplace she'd never been, it is my favorite place in utah to fish. the fishing was pretty good and she was even wiling to place a caddis larva on her tongue for a quick photo. i don't know why i asked her to do it but i did and she did. it was another enjoyable day with my wife.</div>

Since austin already has to do summer school i deemed it o.k. to let him miss friday and come fishing with me instead. there was some water that i wanted to hit before i left for the sandbox so with austin in tow we arrived to already find a couple of cars there, which surprised me since it was a week day. hardly find cars there on a weekend, then again the weather is getting nicer. when we showed up the wind was already cooking and i contemplated not even dealing with it and going to another area i wanted to fish. i stuck it out and austin was doing good. i started with streamers but about 1/2 into it i switched to nymphs since i do better nymphing there anyway. as i was approaching my honey hole i saw that there was somebody else already fishing it. we walked around him and up a bit just to find 3 more people fishing a bend i wanted to hit. at this point the wind was really pissing me off and i chose to just walk up to the last holes and hope there was nobody there as well. the 2 holes were empty but i only mustered 1 fish from each. from there we headed back in the direction of home and stopped by another piece of water hoping the wind would be void there, wrong answer. we were there for maybe 3 hours before austin's constant complaining, whinning and mopping go the best of me. i left him there and i do hope he is o.k. but no telling. haha, just kidding we did leave but that sucked cause the fishing was lights out so i'm hoping to get back down there tommorrow with the wife<br />

After work i met up with dbone and a couple of others and fished a new piece of water, at least for me. they were already on the water by the time i got up there and i arrived just in time to pull out my camera as dbone had just landed a real nice brown. we fished up till we reached a fence strewn acrossed the river, getting into a few fish. it was a surprise to me when i landed a rainbow and then it was a surprise again when i landed an even bigger one in our last hole.mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-87641514361536850432012-04-26T18:13:00.000-07:002012-04-26T18:13:48.142-07:00Another Slow Day<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Scott joined up with me and matt this day. we fished a good chuck of water but like last time me and matt fished the river just didn't produce many fish or anything of real size. we all caught a few fish but nothing to write home about.mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-45536540990841590212012-04-19T16:16:00.013-07:002012-04-19T16:42:35.872-07:00Not the Most Productive Day<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OkJ3ziHUT0c/T5Cimk2MI8I/AAAAAAAAGQU/I79C4XKJ4JM/s1600/IMG_2771.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5733261109252334530" style="FLOAT: left;

WTF?! oh well the one that i finally hit and landed was a stellar 24" brown. that was it for me the whole day. on the other hand, even though the day started off slow except one splake that jon caught right off the bat, eventually jon started roping fish after fish. a bunch of handsome 'bows' including one with one eye and a brilliantly colored hefer of a brown. jon landed about 10 fish but i would still say it was kind of a tough day. there was way to much sexy water that didn't even give a glimpse of anything swimming, throw on top of that the brutal winds and it was, at least in my eyes, a tough day of fishing, but hey i'm just happy to be able to get some pics of quality fish.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>mike doughtyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03771484219579607149noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057418688752324459.post-88871784862298661222012-03-28T17:37:00.008-07:002012-03-29T18:30:59.217-07:00Instead of Musky<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ctWz_y11zes/T3UMx9ja5sI/AAAAAAAAGHU/OWqgDRxMC00/s1600/IMG_2277.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5725496553747703490" style="FLOAT: left;
