Wow what a rough day on the water.
Ever have one of those days where nothing seems to go quite right? [mad]
I had fish this evening practically daring my to catch them and yet my net stayed dry. I had one even (at least it looked this way to me) come fully air born in an attempt to catch my offering mid-flight as a made some low side are false casts under a branch.
Missed at least 3 rise’s and at least 4 actual hook sets ( made contact but the fish won .. think my hooks may be dull) 2 of the missed hook sets were when the fly was just dragging, half submerged, as I panned the water to prepare for my next cast
Perfect dead drift on a known feeding fish nada ……. Sloppy drag at the end of the drift where you did not think a fish would even hold …. Hay what the AHHHH a fish
Just one of those mixed up days where good = bad and bad = good
Huh oh well just had to vent
until tomorrow
peace
