Fly Rod

It's Saturday and Joe asked me what I wanted to do today.
Next thing you know we were in Heber on the Provo River (of Course).
In the afternoon I felt like a total beginner with my fly rod (because I am).
Even so I caught a really big trout!
Only problem is, he was so big I couldn't get him up the bank, and I didnt have my net ready.
I really didn't expect to catch anything, let alone a BIG Monster.
Alas for me (lucky for him) he broke free just as he was nearly out of the water. It was fun.





We took a break and went into town for late lunch.
We returned at about 4:30 and I found some shade on the other side of the river.
I had 4 bites, but no catch.

The main thing is that over the course of the day, I was getting very comfortable with my new Fly Rod.
By evening I almost looked like I knew what I was doing.

We may go back next Saturday.
