Yah it was a rough road and a rough trip . . . I had just purchased a vintage garcia 408 spinning reel to go with my 8' bubble chucker rod - i had tied float and wooly bugger and nymph on carefully before leaving home . . .lost that all on the first cast - i lost over 10 daredevils and kastmasters, at least 5-8 spinners, every bubble/float i had, a dozen assorted nymphs, another dozen or more jigs, tubes, scuds, and buggers . . .and i got one hit . . . and it rained . . and my line constantly tangled when i wasnt hung up . . when i got there hedgesd was going back to camp for his waders, cause he was hung up on his fly rod! . . .ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh maybe ill try this again in 10 yrs or so . . .but then again maybe not . . . 660 miles roundtrip for me . .[unsure][shocked][mad]
