jhicks,

These are beautiful pics. Keep posting them!

Also, (I don't want you to spill the beans on your secret browns spot - that sounds like a personal matter), but the last river pic - the river is familiar. Where are you in that one?

Great! I Needed That!
We got to hook up this spring , I need some spey lessons.
All I use mine for is a giant bober chucker!

That
Gets me ready for this weekends trip. Don't expect to catch much but a cold!

I do plan on testing out two different anti guide freezing techniques. Some stanley's Ice off on one rod and some Pam on another. Will report my results

Hegel the river in the last two river pics is the Matapedia in Quebec, No secret. The other river is top secret and will go with me to my grave.

Never said the Striper was on the Fly. I caught that one trolling a tube and worm. Largest striper on the fly for 06 was 30" and not as fat.
