went up to the canyon this morning around 8am. started at Valley Bridge and made our way down to Parkdale. i did not have my water gauge on me but i would say water temp was in the low 40's. caught two (bottom two in pic) on my fly rod on a little prince nymph and then dident have another bite off the fly rod the rest of the day. started bouncing night crawlers off the bottom and the old man and i hooked up with the rest in the pic. i caught three he caught 7, but threw a few back. wind drove us off the river at about noon. saw a lot of other people out there fishing and only asked one guy if he had any luck, he told me he dident have any luck all day. another great day.

Sounds good. Look forward to the report. Make sure Dad isnt the one holding the net if you go below Spinney. He seems to freeze when you have a HUGE one hooked. He likes to cut your line in jealousy when you have a state record on the other end too......watch your back!!!
