Sometimes we gotta do what we gotta do, to ensure our fly box isn't empty :) I still don't quite understand why trout season is closed for so long. They could at least just make it catch n release during their spawning times. I go crazy in the winter. Ice fishing starts looking really appealing. Plus the ice cold fish are delicious.

The new pain in the butt that seems to be out in full effect are the Deer Flies and Horse Flies.

Utah sounds like the place to be, the Brookies out there are giants. Plus all those cutties and bows. The lake floating until December sounds superb. I heard that the snowboarding out there is awesome too.
