9/22/2014 8:36:00 PMIt sounds like a magical adventure. I get concerned about casualties with such large numbers of catch and release.
I hope it was minimal.

9/22/2014 11:59:00 PMThe death rate was 0 fishing tenor, barbless flies minimal handling... there is no safer way to fish and i dont appreciate what your implying. I took only 1pic the rest either fell off the hook, or i gently shook the hook with hemastats....i hate how people feel the need to make such a negative implication when i went out of my way to make this report for you...i am an expert trout angler, ive caught 10,000+trout im the last person you should try to councel.
Fishing tenor, do not comment on my reports again.

9/27/2014 12:28:00 PMGreat report...! I showed my son and he said "Dad that's the kind of fishing I want to do". Getting away from the crowds.. and smalls can be the prettiest fish, it doesn't always have to be about the biggest fish.
I understand your getting upset about FishingTenor's comment. I posted here a couple years ago about fishing a lake in Oregon. I showed a pict of 10 fish my friend and I kept over three day camping trip and someone gave me crap about catch and release. The lake is stocked with 5k fish a year. Idk.. guess some people just have to open their mouths.
How long is your 3 weight? Would a 5 weight be too big for a creek like this?
Take care!

9/28/2014 3:28:00 PMThanks for the report JonB. I always enjoy reading them. Now that I'm a new dad, I can only live vicariously through them. Ah...the days when a guy could just pack a bag, head for the wilderness with all his fishing gear and fly fish all day long. You're living my dream man. Family and kids are great, but I miss those solo fishing days too.
