Actually that was Todd that mentioned Turners, but I know exactly who you are talking about....he worked for Fred Jolley for some time, a wiry chain-smoking guy who always had a good tip. When I was a high-school student in the 60's, my dad and I were returning from a fishing trip on the Middle Fork of the Boise. We drove down to the banks of Arrowrock which was quite low at the time. The usually submerged canyon walls were showing and there was a fellow fishing with a bobber at the base of some of those cliffs. We walked up to him and when my dad asked how he was doing, he dragged his boots over a little puddle he had made, and you could still see some of the minnows flopping around in the now mud. He had an amazing stringer of trout. All in the 4-5# range. Probably 8-10 of them. Limit in those days was 15. Why then and not now? I sure don't have an answer to that! Mike
