Celebrating Monday on Tuesday!! 3/29/11



So Jay and I (Tim) were unable to make it down to the river on Monday..... so obviously the next best thing was to celebrate the tradition on Tuesday when the opportunity presented itself....(Well what would you do??) Ted was also able to come down with us, so he got two Mondays in a row! A rare treat indeed.... The weather was similar to Monday, maybe a little nicer, but for this time of year in late March these snow flurries and colder temperatures have GOT to go!! Jay and I fished the entire time mainly staying at the usual spot, but also walked down the river a little way to try some different locations...... nope, we didn't catch a thing....didn't even get a bite. Oh well, it was just great to be out there trying. We could see where Ted had really cleaned up the area from the recent floods, so you can see by the picture he was getting some well deserved rest! We did have a visitor this evening, Mitch one of the Park Service Rangers stopped be to see what we were up to. Had some nice conversation with him, discussed fishing, fires and some of his challenges as a Park Ranger in the area. (you know, the usual Park Ranger jibber jabber). But anyway, it was a nice visit and the first time I had met Mitch. I've heard the other guys talk about him often but have never met him. And yes by the way.... Mitch did inform us that we DID have the best fire on the river! All in all it was a great night, very relaxing.......
