What can I say... It was an AWESOME day up on the Weber. Face is burnt, pride is high. Caught a TON of fish using my own tied flies! WOOT! Man that's a great feeling, fish just hammering your own flies allllll daaayyyyyyy looooong!!!! I prob ended the day with around 30ish. Wasn't keeping count, having to much fun! I easily lost just as many as I caught to that awesome head shake! LOVE IT as frustrating as it is! Started out of one of the must frustrating days I've ever had as well! Lost a LOT of good flies to the notorious under water trees/bushes. There's was a lot of re-tying setups going on today. FYI, Furled leaders really are awesome! 
The more I use em, the more I love them even more. Did some screening on the bottom today, saw a lot of mayfly, few stones, and a crane fly larvae. I'm going to have to work up a few flies of those! Lost all my stone fly flies early on, but managed to catch two on those. Had on a tan Hares Ear that was getting hot, then lost both of those that I tied up to the depths. At this point I was REALLY frustrated, not knowing what was about to come. I next threw on a red copper john in a size 14 and a size 18 WD-40. Ahhh they were LOVIN it! Couldn't keep them off.
Sorry about the quality of the pics... One of these days I'll go get me a water proof camera rather then using a cell phone. *CHEERS*
