Finally Back on the Water Nov 1

Well, after a two week trip to Canada for my real job, and generation to the extreme, I got to go fishing.  I fished from 8:30 am till 4:30 pm.  And it was hard fishing.  The water was still up about 1 1/2 feet above the regular 240 cfs.  The water was also pea green.  Needless to say visibility was very poor.  The trout could not see the flies very well and I couldn't see the snags very well either.  I lost a lot of flies and runs that you could drift once in clear water took as many as 6 drifts to catch a fish.  I guess you almost had to bump them on the nose  to get their attention.  I did catch 23 fish.  7 on the #8 san juan worm with a bead, 11 on the Kenny, 2 on the chartreuse woolly, and 3 on the green eyed demon.
