10 days on the water: 9 for stocking

[lestrout]

What's it mean when I've been out 10 times this year, but ffishing only once? It's been a slow start to the season - I've only seen a handful of bugs. But stocking has been fun, and I get to be out on the water and see trouts (in the buckets).

Hi les

I'm sure you know there is surface action to be had...

Stockies on pickering were taking dries in the faster water, and BWO's have been working well on vc.

go fish!

I've been out three times - and have found BWO's and risers every time.
But it has been a cold spring so far - had to wear my heaviest thermal underwear and socks every outing.

Good for you Les. Someone has to do it and I've found that the experience can be very rewarding hangin with the fellers and swappin rhymes.

New definition for "bucket list."

The streams you helped stock this year.

I feel fortunate for that one time. Time for a trip to the LL.
