It was many years ago when Jim Miller (jimwarden) introduced me to the Float &amp; Fly. He schooled me then on Dale Hollow. We made another foray back to Carters Lake Sunday... and yes, the teacher took me to school again. emoWorthy <br /><br />It was a VERY tough day... there were four boats on the lake, counting us. All caught relatively few fish. Bluebird skies, high pressure, cold, cold &amp; rough wind ... all combined to make it a struggle for everyone... especially me.<br /><br />My boat, I was on the trolling motor... which of course meant I had first shot at everything.<br /><br />End result:<br /><br />Me - Big, fat zero ( I din&#39;t even catch a Fat Albert limit)! emoBawl <br /><br />jimwarden - Six healthy spots... <br /><br />All caught from the back of the boat, fishing behind me, scooping up my leftovers. emoBang <br /><br />Both of us fishing Float &amp; Fly... after his third fish he even gave me a fly identical to his.<br /><br />No really big fish caught.... which is my only excuse. I only wanted a biggun&#39;. emoFish (That&#39;s my story and I&#39;m sticking to it) emoBig
