Comments

Today the wind dictated where I fished. I do not like fishing in the wind, so I try to avoid it. Considering the conditions and not having targeted the area in the past, I did okay. All the fish I caught were relating to some sort of wood.
Another fisherman I watched caused me to chuckle. He was attempting to fly fish in a rather weed infested area. I have no idea how he could even come close to landing a fly in a bath tub size area while dealing with twenty mile per hour winds. I do not think he did either.
