So, decided to head down to a favourite stretch of river yesterday. Water is pretty stained, as usual this time of year. I was seeing some bug activity in the water. Couldnt tell if they were boatmen or backswimmers. Well needless to say, went to the fly box, and despite the MASSIVE wind storm we recieved yesterday. Threw on some boatmen patterns...and BAM!! Pictures will speak for themselves!

Keep in mind, I forgot my camera at home! ( I know I know ). So these are taken with my cell.

Also, as you see, some of these fish actually dwarfed my net :P
