Hurt my knee out at work yesterday at work. Thought it felt good enough to fish today. I only manged a 100 yards on the river and had to return to the truck. My knee wont take it.

I managed two of these Cutts (Snake River), and maybe 6 little Bows.

Sorry to hear about your bum leg. Good thing your not a horse. (humor...laughter is the best medicine kind of thing)

What a purdy brown trout. Love the coloration. That fish is the size of your arm! Holy cow.

I hope you're feeling better soon.

sorry for your knee, Nice fish BTW.

Could it be that your knee was protesting about the cap you wear? Normally you do have a blue one I thought??? ;) ;)

My sympathies. Been there, done that.

I find that standing waist deep in water takes enough weight of the knee that I can fish even when I can't really walk. The problem is getting back to the car. Thank goodness for wading staffs.

Ray - what brown? I see two cutts and bow.

DUBBN, Howdy;

I always found the cold and pressure of the water helps my bad knee feel better
like redietz mentioned. It's the cold and lower pressures that make it 'speak' to me.
Think of low pressure zones and bad weather moving in... :cry: .

Ruard may be on to something with the hat bit ... LOOP vs ND?????

Ooooooh! That first nymph is gorgeous IMO. And those cuts are too. Thanks, Wayne.
