Minnsconsin Fly Fishing: August 2007

Fly Fishing The Mostly Forgotten Rivers of Minnesota and Wisconsin. And, a little of the beer and music enjoyed along the way. Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Another Day, Another Big Fish. Then I caught that damn walleye. It's our state fish. It's the state fish because we like to eat it, fried- which is why Minnesotans are a bit broad in the beam. I love the big, fly-caught smallmouth. Tuesday, August 21, 2007. Yet, Another Hog Smallmouth. Tuesday, August 14, 2007. Friday, August 10, 2007. One day a pair o...

I was reading my John Muir last night and here is what he said:. However, since we are now deciding to forgo raising revenues from the sources where we once sought them to maintain the parks and their facilities(i.e. a progressive income tax, estate taxes, culture of donating, adequate user fees, etc.) these resources a...Weakening...

This guy nailed the #2 brown/yellow bugger right at sunset. I didn't catch a fish after that. There were a few follows, and I gave it up at midnight. It seems to be a pattern that when the moon is "new" that I hook a really big fish- the woods are also alive with mice, voles, etc. Friday, August 20, 2010. Note the ky...

This took a little work to get right. A 25' rainbow from Trout Lake in Yellowstone National Park. I fished this lake for years and caught nothing but fat, 16-20' cutthroats- nothing wrong with that, but I had heard about these rainbows. These huge, fat, scud-slurping lake-bows. But, the rainbows? Old Fish (Part 3) T...

Anyway, here is the smallmouth bass- happily without a lamprey stuck to his back. Though I am not one to get in the way of nature, I do not like the idea of these things sucking the life from the river's population of large smallmouth. Saturday, July 26, 2008.

Fly Fishing The Mostly Forgotten Rivers of Minnesota and Wisconsin. And, a little of the beer and music enjoyed along the way. Monday, June 16, 2008. I've been sitting in cafes and bars that dot the flat, sand country of central Wisconsin in the early evenings. I'm waiting, reading newspapers, getting online where there is WiFi. Yesterday, I had a mishap in the stream and strained an already tender muscle in my thigh. Today it is very stiff and painful. So it goes. Kicks The Shit Out Of Crazy Old Bastard!

They were out thick tonight. The Winona Fly Factory. Combo of a orange stimulator/sparkle larvae (or a pink squirrel) with a little tungsten bead got em down to where they live. However, the largest fish- the eight to ten inch giants- came up for the stimulator. They were there in time for two-fer-ones. No bears&#46...

Minnsconsin Fly Fishing: January 2009

Fly Fishing The Mostly Forgotten Rivers of Minnesota and Wisconsin. And, a little of the beer and music enjoyed along the way. Friday, January 2, 2009. There was a time, when I was younger- not much younger, when I would jump in my parent's car and drive south to the Whitewater river system near Rochester and go fly fishing for trout- on the first of January when the season officially opened. I mean this in all seriousness. Now you may say how can one fish this time year? My experience was something like...
