It is all “catch and release”-so I guess it makes it quite fish friendly also. The guidebooks also say that when a hatch comes off–you better match it exactly, otherwise these fish will ignore your bugs and turn your evening into a casting session.

My evening was a nice little casting session.

At least I had the calendar backdrop to look at.

None of the bugs I tied on worked, and when I cast right in front of the “fish rings” and drifted over them, it was like a game of find the trout.

Ring here–cast, ring over there.
Ring there–cast, ring over here.

It’s as if the fish were screwing with me and I hate it when fish screw with me!

The fish laughter was great as I finally threw in the rod for the evening. I turned to give the fish a dirty scowl, but they all just sat there whistling like it wasn’t them laughing.

Bastards.

At this point I might as well have been fishing the O. Henry, at least there I might get a Gift of the Maji.

A big beautiful full moon lit the way back to my Mongolian roundhouse,where I drowned my sorrows in a big juicy “Flintstone sized” Bronto-burger.

Tomorrow would be different.

to be continued….
