old f--ts with flyrods

Thanks, funny you bring this up because I just bought one (and a new trout net) a few weeks ago. When I was younger, I carried a net (the wrong way) but got sick of it hanging up on everything so I quit carrying one. I was on the Delaware River back in February in a good spot but it was tough to land my fish so I said right there, "I'm getting a net and a magnetic release." 

Still haven't had a chance to use them but hopefully soon.

your going to love it  bart   ...my suggestion  is  have  the   net   between your  shoulders and  the   hand  where  it's  easy to  get too .... i was like  you   tossed the  net  strap over  my  shoulders and  it was hung  up on  every bit of  brush i walked  by ....np  with this set  up

Speaking of trout nets, the wife picked up an new Orvis trout net at a garage sale last summer for .50. Looked it up on Orvis website, $85.00. Some one is not happy in town. I will let her go again this summer...h2l

walked  up a  stream i  fish  ......  caught a  couple  small browns    decided  to try another spot  i walked  back  down  theres a  pond  and seen  my  first  baby geese  of the year ....i was  really surprized  with the  weather going  up and  down i figured it would  be  awhile.....wasn't  my  best day  but far  from  worse  i didn't rock the  fish  but had  fun  seen the  little  goslings  and  then i seen a  eagle  flying  ......got  rained on  lol

that seems early for baby geese right ? She had to be sitting by what mid march ?  I was still sitting on the ice !

i could not believe it   myself  it takes 28 days for canadian goose eggs to incubate

[trapper2000]

i had a  really  great day  on the  water  ....2  browns i think might be hold overs  15 inchers   a few  10 and  a  1/2  and   a  big  blue  gill that  inhaled the  phesasant tail   was  a  good  day andd i'm having a trout dinner tonight   








met  another  nice  fly  fisherman  had a   great day  all the  way  around

A great morning I had to release some beautiful over 12 trout ended up sharing my spot with a father and young son and that made it the perfect day.                           

Dinner looks good everything was on pheasant tails

I love pheasant.
Loved hunting them too back in the 60’s, 70’s, and early 80’s when they were still around.

Nice catch Trapp!

[trapper2000]

lot of fun hunting  pheasants  when the state  actually stocked them  now  they stock  less and  less ....small game  hunting is  dieing ......  anyways  mac  as far  as  big trout i  been fishing  waters off the regular paths and it's paid  off with   some  nice   size  trout  and the  gills i been getting are  nice too !!!!

[trapper2000]

what a  change  from yesterday!!!!  not  one  trout  ...i  did  get  some  nice  bluegills a few on  foam

[trapper2000]
