Fly Fishing Guess Work

[prvrt]

I had forgot about the pump. I do have one and do use it if I can remember that I have it. Usually I get into catching and forget about checking things out like the hatch or pumping them to see what they are eating. There have been so many times I have been out fishing with friends and say, 'The next fish I will pump so we can see what they are eating'. Well, 4 fish later, they are asking what was in their stomach? My reply is always the same, "I forgot to check, I'll check the next one'. A few fish later and my friends will get the same answer. I guess I just get in to the moment and everything else is out the window. I am there to relax and have fun and try not to think to much. I guess it is working, at least the not thinking part.
