Default Smoky Sunday

Missed the hot weather Saturday and headed out East on Sunday. Managed to stop and catch some small brookies and RMHs on the dry fly, which was a blast. Then the cold front arrived...
Some 20 minutes later the ground was covered in hail that stayed for the day like snow...sigh....
Not a rise to be seen any more, none, nada.
So I did the next best thing, I nymphed for cutties....blah...feel so dirty

Did quite well with several big cutties landed.

The only bad part is shortly after the front rolled through, so did the smoke. I did not think much about it but after hiking around and then today, I'm coughing and feel like crap. It was fine before that. Next time when I smell smoke that bad, I'll be smarter about it and head out.
