Sorry, Reel Lady, heard the forcast for a windy weekend so decided against not only Henry's but our own Strawberry.
The hubby helped a brother move Saturday till about 2:00, then the brother from Pocatello called and said to come up and we could fish Lake X Sunday.
I was suprised that the hubby loaded the truck and off we went.
We took the H3's instead on this one.

Lake X (which due to it's size I prefer not to mention) was fishing very slow. Fish were rising everywhere and the Gnats were driving us nuts. Waterboatmen skeetering all over, but no takes.
I finally switched to an interrmediate line and a Black/Red Gartside softhackle and BAMB (of course as I was heading in).
Nothing like a 24" to wipe the smell of skunk off.

For you fly flingers, here is a little critter to tie up. Drangonfly nymph, measured about 1 1/4" long.
