I hope veryone had a very merry Christmas. Mine was a blast. Had a good time with the family. I got lots of gifts (who knew I was so good?), one of my favorite of which was some new Simms G4 waders and boots.
So yeah...I needed to test them out.
I left dallas at 5:30am on Sunday and made my way out to Mineral Wells and then on to the hwy16 bridge on the Brazos below PK.
The air was 26 degrees when I slipped into the river...
Yeah...see that dam in the distance? I walked to that. This is what seperates the men from the candyasses. As well as those with common sense.
I met some other fly fishers at the base of the dam and they were really nice folks and I enjoyed chatting with them.
First fish...*looks up* Osprys!
Second fish..hmm...there is a theme here...
Boosh...thats more like it!
Stood here for 3 hours and caught 19 fish, mostly sandbass.
First time to the PK tailrace, first striped bass on the fly, new waders.....

ReplyDeleteJust found your blog and it kept me sane in a time when all of our water up here in IL is frozen. Good content, keep it up.
