I know, it's all good.
Just remember bus drivers are people too.
I'm there behind you cheering you on....or maybe a little to the side and back.

Howdy All;
Decieded that I only live once. Have been struggling for over an hour to post seperate pix of this afternoon. phooy...
http://s959.photobucket.com/albums/ae80 ... h%20River/
looking at the jpeg numbers; 001 is looking East, 002 looking South, 003 NorthEast (towards the river), this was shortly after my last post.
004 decieded not to cooperate, 005 looking SouthWest from the parking area (my hopes were building),
006 My first trout on a fly! Nice little 10 incher. released .Used one of those ants (thanks Ray), fished it upstream, allowed it to float past me.
Used the loading from the current to help me cast back upstream ... repeat....
007 Number 2! On my way back to the truck. thunder was louder and closer... I was using one of Dubbn's Muskrat flys (Thanks Wayne), allowed the fly to preceed me down stream. Strip it back to me and mend to steer it into seams and beside objects...
I HAD A GREAT TIME!!!
