About a month ago I lost my fly vest and the majority of my fly gear. The one thing I do miss in the vest was an old case of flies that were my dads. In particular it had a couple of what we called a " strawberry streamer" I am not sure if he tied them or bought them. They were part of some fond memories. He liked to go late in the year and fish by lantern in the dark with these streamers behind a bubble. Best I can recall they were a dark kinda bucktail design with some red or dark body and eyes. That ring a bell to anyone? I would like to buy or tie up some to replace them.
As for a couple quick reports
RP - abundant perch and smallies are available along the shorelines. My students are catching them at the docks. We have caught them at pullout on both sides. Our floating bugs, pats fligs or roadrunner jigs, pats marabou jigs, senkos rigged wacky. Ext. Good place to get a bite.
Whitney. Extended family has been up twice. Lots of smaller bows and tigers on powerbait. Worm and bobber. Jake's and meps. A few bigger tigers working jigs deep. Road in is close m-thur for a few weeks for construction work. You can access via gold hill or the county road through coalville but they are both rough.
Pineview is red hot for panfish but cookie is working on a video. So I will let her tell that story when she is ready
We will drop a report on the Idaho forum Thursday about a trip to Magic.
We are burning up the fuel and sandwiches making up for a couple summers that we did not get out as much. Fun fun
