Fishless

But I got exactly what I needed.

Hopes were high - levels were about prime, on the drop, and warming.

Bald eagles, Kinglets, a couple elk herds, Dippers, and a pair of wood ducks!

Fetid Adders Tongue are just starting to set seeds IMG_4390.jpeg

I felt something in the run adjacent to the Adders that made me change my fly, nothing. Landed a nice cutt in the run around the corner.

Stop 2, swear I saw a fish roll in my peripheral. I already would have covered it, so I moved onIMG_4391.jpeg


Definitely feeling it, no tracks 1st one through

A spot that has been good to me, kept me on edge, I was casting under the trees well today.

I covered water well, I had a few trouty pulls, and 2 encounters that could have been steelhead. I saw a fish roll, and saw 2 holding next to rocks.

The search and grind are an integral part of this game, and doing it well brings me joy.
