  I
• 0:15
  mean,
• 0:15
  dude,
• 0:15
  like,
• 0:16
  it
• 0:16
  wasn't
• 0:16
  raining,
• 0:16
  and
• 0:17
  now
• 0:17
  it's
• 0:17
  raining.
• 0:18
  It's
• 0:19
  raining
• 0:19
  every
• 0:19
  day.
• 0:20
  It's
• 0:20
  like,
• 0:20
  time
• 0:20
  to
• 0:21
  build
• 0:21
  an
• 0:21
  ark.
• 0:22
  Yeah,
• 0:22
  it's
• 0:22
  kind
• 0:22
  of
• 0:22
  nuts.
• 0:23
  And
• 0:23
  so,
• 0:23
  you
• 0:23
  know,
• 0:23
  we
• 0:23
  were
• 0:23
  talking
• 0:24
  and,
• 0:24
  you
• 0:24
  know,
• 0:24
  it's
• 0:25
  interesting,
• 0:25
  right,
• 0:25
  because
• 0:25
  we've
• 0:26
  been
• 0:26
  so
• 0:26
  dry
• 0:27
  in
• 0:27
  this
• 0:28
  part
• 0:28
  of
• 0:28
  the
• 0:28
  country
• 0:28
  for
• 0:29
  so
• 0:29
  long
• 0:29
  that,
• 0:30
  you
• 0:30
  know,
• 0:30
  stuff's
• 0:31
  not
• 0:31
  really
• 0:31
  blown
• 0:31
  out,
• 0:31
  but
• 0:32
  we've
• 0:32
  got
• 0:32
  kind
• 0:32
  of
• 0:32
  showers
• 0:33
  and,
• 0:34
  you
• 0:34
  know,
• 0:34
  meaningful
• 0:34
  rainfall
• 0:35
  over
• 0:35
  the
• 0:35
  next
• 0:35
  week
• 0:36
  to
• 0:36
  10
• 0:36
  days.
• 0:36
  And
• 0:36
  so
• 0:36
  we're
• 0:37
  going
• 0:37
  to
• 0:37
  probably
• 0:37
  have,
• 0:38
  you
• 0:38
  know,
• 0:39
  from
• 0:39
  a
• 0:39
  fishing
• 0:40
  perspective,
• 0:41
  elevated
• 0:41
  and
• 0:42
  stained
• 0:42
  water.
• 0:42
  So
• 0:42
  we
• 0:43
  thought
• 0:43
  today
• 0:43
  would
• 0:43
  be
• 0:43
  a
• 0:43
  good
• 0:44
  time
• 0:44
  to
• 0:44
  talk
• 0:44
  to
• 0:44
  folks
• 0:44
  about,
• 0:45
  you
• 0:45
  know,
• 0:45
  how
• 0:45
  to
• 0:46
  not,
• 0:46
  you
• 0:46
  know,
• 0:46
  we're
• 0:46
  not
• 0:47
  talking
• 0:47
  about
• 0:47
  fishing,
• 0:47
  ripping
• 0:47
  water
• 0:48
  and
• 0:48
  fishing
• 0:48
  on
• 0:48
  structure
• 0:49
  and
• 0:49
  staying
• 0:49
  close
• 0:49
  to
• 0:50
  the
• 0:50
  banks.
• 0:50
  But,
• 0:50
  you
• 0:50
  know,
• 0:51
  what
• 0:51
  do
• 0:51
  you
• 0:51
  do
• 0:51
  when
• 0:51
  you
• 0:52
  got
• 0:52
  kind
• 0:52
  of
• 0:52
  chocolatey
• 0:53
  high
• 0:53
  water
• 0:53
  and
• 0:53
  you
• 0:53
  want
• 0:54
  to
• 0:54
  go
• 0:54
  fishing?
• 0:55
  Yeah,
• 0:56
  I
• 0:56
  thought
• 0:56
  that'd
• 0:56
  be
• 0:57
  a
• 0:57
  good
• 0:57
  topic.
• 0:57
  Just
• 0:57
  as
• 0:57
  far
• 0:58
  as
• 0:58
  people
• 0:59
  maybe
• 0:59
  help
• 0:59
  them
• 0:59
  out
• 1:00
  with
• 1:00
  getting
• 1:00
  a
• 1:00
  little
• 1:00
  bit
• 1:01
  closer
• 1:01
  to
• 1:02
  choosing
• 1:03
  the
• 1:03
  right
• 1:04
  technique,
• 1:04
  right
• 1:05
  kind
• 1:05
  of
• 1:05
  patterns
• 1:06
  to
• 1:06
  fish.
• 1:06
  And
• 1:06
  one
• 1:07
  of
• 1:07
  the.
• 1:07
  One
• 1:07
  of
• 1:07
  the
• 1:07
  big
• 1:07
  things
• 1:08
  about
• 1:08
  contrast,
• 1:09
  when
• 1:09
  the
• 1:09
  water
• 1:09
  gets,
• 1:10
  you
• 1:10
  know,
• 1:10
  t
• 1:10
  colored
• 1:10
  is
• 1:11
  a
• 1:11
  lot
• 1:11
  of
• 1:11
  times
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  fish
• 1:12
  are
• 1:12
  going
• 1:12
  to
• 1:12
  move
• 1:12
  up
• 1:13
  in
• 1:13
  the
• 1:13
  column.
• 1:13
  Even
• 1:13
  bass,
• 1:14
  they're
• 1:15
  going
• 1:15
  to
• 1:15
  be
• 1:15
  structured
• 1:15
  up
• 1:16
  higher
• 1:16
  off
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  structure.
• 1:17
  You
• 1:17
  know,
• 1:17
  if
• 1:17
  the
• 1:18
  water
• 1:18
  gets
• 1:18
  a
• 1:18
  little
• 1:18
  bit
• 1:18
  colored.
• 1:19
  But
• 1:19
  trout,
• 1:20
  they
• 1:20
  gonna
• 1:20
  do
• 1:20
  the
• 1:21
  same
• 1:21
  thing.
• 1:21
  So
• 1:21
  like
• 1:21
  using
• 1:22
  a
• 1:22
  dry
• 1:22
  fly,
• 1:23
  keeping
• 1:23
  those
• 1:24
  tags
• 1:24
  off
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  dry
• 1:24
  fly,
• 1:25
  if
• 1:25
  you
• 1:25
  dry
• 1:25
  dropper,
• 1:26
  keeping
• 1:26
  them
• 1:27
  a
• 1:27
  lot
• 1:27
  closer
• 1:27
  to
• 1:27
  the
• 1:27
  surface
• 1:28
  for
• 1:28
  the.
• 1:29
  For
• 1:29
  the
• 1:29
  nymphs,
• 1:29
  you're
• 1:30
  going
• 1:30
  to
• 1:30
  choose,
• 1:30
  you
• 1:30
  know,
• 1:31
  so.
• 1:31
  So
• 1:31
  we
• 1:31
  try
• 1:32
  to
• 1:32
  stay
• 1:32
  away
• 1:32
  from
• 1:32
  the
• 1:32
  natural
• 1:33
  colors
• 1:33
  when
• 1:33
  the
• 1:33
  water's
• 1:34
  dirty.
• 1:34
  Not
• 1:34
  so
• 1:34
  much
• 1:35
  like
• 1:35
  the
• 1:35
  frenchie
• 1:35
  pheasant
• 1:36
  tail
• 1:36
  kind
• 1:36
  of
• 1:36
  stuff
• 1:37
  is
• 1:38
  more
• 1:38
  with
• 1:39
  something
• 1:40
  shiny,
• 1:40
  like
• 1:40
  tiny
• 1:41
  and
• 1:41
  shiny
• 1:41
  works
• 1:41
  really
• 1:41
  well
• 1:42
  with
• 1:42
  this
• 1:42
  kind
• 1:42
  of
• 1:43
  condition
• 1:43
  going
• 1:43
  on.
• 1:44
  And
• 1:45
  there's
• 1:45
  a
• 1:45
  lot
• 1:45
  of
• 1:45
  other
• 1:45
  things,
• 1:46
  too,
• 1:46
  but
• 1:46
  as
• 1:46
  far
• 1:46
  as
• 1:47
  just
• 1:47
  the.
• 1:48
  The
• 1:48
  coloration
• 1:49
  of
• 1:49
  patterns
• 1:50
  move
• 1:50
  up
• 1:50
  in
• 1:50
  the
• 1:51
  column
• 1:51
  and
• 1:51
  get
• 1:51
  stuff
• 1:52
  that's
• 1:52
  going
• 1:52
  to
• 1:52
  stand
• 1:52
  out.
• 1:52
  So
• 1:53
  with
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  dry
• 1:53
  fly,
• 1:53
  of
• 1:53
  course,
• 1:54
  contrast
• 1:54
  would
• 1:54
  be
• 1:55
  something
• 1:55
  that's
• 1:55
  dark
• 1:56
  against
• 1:56
  an
• 1:56
  overcast
• 1:57
  back,
• 1:57
  you
• 1:58
  know,
• 1:58
  sky.
• 1:58
  We
• 1:58
  wouldn't
• 1:58
  fish
• 1:59
  a
• 1:59
  light
• 1:59
  fly
• 2:00
  in
• 2:00
  overcast
• 2:01
  conditions.
• 2:01
  So
• 2:01
  black
• 2:02
  tends
• 2:02
  to
• 2:02
  be,
• 2:02
  you
• 2:02
  know,
• 2:02
  dark
• 2:03
  gray,
• 2:03
  and
• 2:03
  black
• 2:03
  would
• 2:03
  be
• 2:04
  a
• 2:04
  good
• 2:04
  coloration
• 2:05
  for
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  dries
• 2:06
  up,
• 2:06
  up
• 2:06
  top.
• 2:07
  And
• 2:07
  then
• 2:07
  as
• 2:07
  far
• 2:08
  as
• 2:08
  the
• 2:08
  nymph,
• 2:08
  have
• 2:08
  something
• 2:08
  tiny
• 2:09
  and
• 2:09
  shiny,
• 2:09
  you
• 2:09
  know,
• 2:09
  a
• 2:10
  foot
• 2:10
  underneath,
• 2:10
  not
• 2:10
  like
• 2:11
  three
• 2:11
  or
• 2:11
  four
• 2:11
  feet
• 2:11
  underneath,
• 2:12
  but
• 2:12
  closer
• 2:12
  to
• 2:12
  the
• 2:12
  surface.
• 2:14
  Yeah.
• 2:14
  And
• 2:14
  so
• 2:15
  on
• 2:15
  the
• 2:15
  dry
• 2:15
  fly
• 2:15
  front,
• 2:16
  that
• 2:16
  means,
• 2:16
  you
• 2:16
  know,
• 2:16
  maybe
• 2:17
  you
• 2:17
  get
• 2:17
  away
• 2:17
  with
• 2:17
  fishing,
• 2:18
  you
• 2:18
  know,
• 2:18
  like
• 2:18
  a
• 2:19
  foam
• 2:19
  bodied,
• 2:19
  black
• 2:19
  bodied
• 2:20
  fly,
• 2:20
  brown
• 2:20
  bodied
• 2:21
  fly
• 2:21
  or
• 2:22
  you
• 2:22
  know,
• 2:22
  like
• 2:23
  this
• 2:23
  time
• 2:23
  of
• 2:23
  year,
• 2:23
  you
• 2:23
  know,
• 2:24
  maybe
• 2:24
  take
• 2:24
  a
• 2:24
  black
• 2:24
  stimulator,
• 2:25
  something
• 2:25
  like
• 2:26
  that.
• 2:27
  Yeah,
• 2:27
  I
• 2:28
  mean
• 2:28
  that's,
• 2:28
  that's
• 2:28
  exactly
• 2:29
  it.
• 2:29
  And
• 2:29
  we
• 2:29
  use
• 2:30
  a
• 2:30
  lot
• 2:30
  of
• 2:30
  the,
• 2:31
  the
• 2:31
  darker
• 2:31
  colors
• 2:32
  for
• 2:32
  that.
• 2:32
  And
• 2:32
  of
• 2:33
  course
• 2:33
  sound
• 2:33
  also
• 2:33
  comes
• 2:34
  important
• 2:34
  just
• 2:34
  like
• 2:35
  when
• 2:35
  people
• 2:35
  night
• 2:35
  fish.
• 2:36
  But
• 2:36
  fish
• 2:37
  will
• 2:37
  still
• 2:37
  use,
• 2:37
  you
• 2:37
  know,
• 2:38
  vibration
• 2:38
  and
• 2:38
  things
• 2:38
  like
• 2:39
  that
• 2:39
  in
• 2:39
  the
• 2:39
  water
• 2:39
  column.
• 2:40
  But
• 2:41
  with
• 2:41
  it,
• 2:41
  with
• 2:41
  it
• 2:41
  kind
• 2:42
  of
• 2:42
  like
• 2:42
  what
• 2:42
  we're
• 2:42
  seeing
• 2:42
  here,
• 2:43
  it's
• 2:43
  not
• 2:43
  like
• 2:43
  it's
• 2:44
  way
• 2:44
  high
• 2:44
  cf,
• 2:45
  you
• 2:45
  know,
• 2:45
  the
• 2:45
  CFS
• 2:46
  is
• 2:46
  not
• 2:46
  like
• 2:46
  crazy
• 2:47
  high
• 2:47
  by
• 2:47
  any
• 2:47
  means,
• 2:48
  but
• 2:48
  the
• 2:48
  water's
• 2:49
  been
• 2:49
  dirty,
• 2:49
  you
• 2:49
  know,
• 2:50
  the
• 2:50
  past
• 2:50
  week
• 2:51
  here
• 2:51
  and
• 2:51
  it's
• 2:51
  going
• 2:52
  to
• 2:52
  continue
• 2:52
  to
• 2:52
  be
• 2:52
  dirty
• 2:53
  according
• 2:54
  to
• 2:54
  the
• 2:54
  forecast
• 2:54
  the
• 2:55
  next
• 2:55
  week.
• 2:55
  So,
• 2:56
  yeah,
• 2:57
  when
• 2:57
  it's
• 2:57
  like
• 2:57
  that,
• 2:57
  it's
• 2:57
  just
• 2:58
  like
• 2:58
  you
• 2:58
  can
• 2:58
  still
• 2:58
  do
• 2:58
  a
• 2:58
  lot
• 2:59
  of
• 2:59
  the
• 2:59
  same,
• 2:59
  you
• 3:00
  know,
• 3:00
  techniques
• 3:00
  that
• 3:00
  we
• 3:01
  do
• 3:01
  when
• 3:01
  the
• 3:01
  water's
• 3:01
  clear.
• 3:03
  And
• 3:03
  a
• 3:03
  lot
• 3:03
  of
• 3:03
  people
• 3:03
  look
• 3:03
  at
• 3:04
  it
• 3:04
  as
• 3:04
  a
• 3:04
  handicap
• 3:04
  with
• 3:05
  stain,
• 3:05
  but
• 3:05
  I
• 3:05
  prefer
• 3:06
  stain.
• 3:06
  I
• 3:07
  like
• 3:07
  it.
• 3:07
  Stain
• 3:07
  kind
• 3:08
  of
• 3:08
  like
• 3:08
  what
• 3:08
  it
• 3:08
  is
• 3:08
  right
• 3:08
  now,
• 3:09
  personally.
• 3:10
  Yeah,
• 3:10
  I
• 3:10
  mean
• 3:11
  it
• 3:11
  kind
• 3:11
  of
• 3:11
  tilts
• 3:11
  the
• 3:11
  odds
• 3:12
  in
• 3:12
  your
• 3:12
  favor.
• 3:12
  Right.
• 3:12
  Because
• 3:13
  it
• 3:13
  allows
• 3:13
  you
• 3:13
  to
• 3:13
  get
• 3:14
  a
• 3:14
  little
• 3:14
  bit
• 3:14
  closer.
• 3:14
  Right.
• 3:15
  And
• 3:15
  also
• 3:15
  the
• 3:16
  water,
• 3:16
  the
• 3:17
  great
• 3:17
  thing
• 3:17
  about
• 3:17
  it
• 3:17
  is
• 3:17
  it
• 3:18
  also
• 3:18
  masks
• 3:18
  like
• 3:19
  waiting
• 3:19
  noise.
• 3:21
  So
• 3:21
  there
• 3:21
  are
• 3:21
  two
• 3:21
  things
• 3:21
  that
• 3:22
  are
• 3:22
  helpful.
• 3:22
  But
• 3:22
  if
• 3:22
  you're
• 3:23
  purely
• 3:23
  nymphing
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  thing
• 3:26
  too,
• 3:26
  the
• 3:27
  rules
• 3:27
  kind
• 3:27
  of
• 3:27
  apply.
• 3:28
  Right.
• 3:28
  Shiny's
• 3:28
  great.
• 3:29
  Rattles
• 3:30
  can
• 3:30
  be
• 3:30
  good.
• 3:31
  We're
• 3:32
  also
• 3:32
  talking
• 3:32
  about
• 3:33
  contrast.
• 3:33
  So
• 3:34
  this
• 3:34
  isn't
• 3:34
  the
• 3:34
  time
• 3:34
  to
• 3:35
  fish
• 3:35
  tan
• 3:36
  flies.
• 3:36
  We're
• 3:36
  talking
• 3:37
  about
• 3:37
  dark
• 3:37
  colors
• 3:38
  because
• 3:38
  you
• 3:38
  want
• 3:38
  contrast.
• 3:39
  And
• 3:39
  you,
• 3:39
  you
• 3:39
  can
• 3:39
  also
• 3:40
  get
• 3:40
  away
• 3:40
  with
• 3:40
  probably
• 3:40
  fishing
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  slightly
• 3:41
  bigger
• 3:42
  bug
• 3:42
  that
• 3:42
  they
• 3:43
  can
• 3:43
  actually
• 3:43
  see
• 3:43
  better,
• 3:44
  right?
• 3:45
  Yeah,
• 3:46
  yeah.
• 3:46
  A
• 3:46
  little
• 3:46
  bit
• 3:46
  bigger
• 3:47
  sizes
• 3:47
  too
• 3:47
  would
• 3:48
  work
• 3:48
  fine.
• 3:48
  And
• 3:49
  you
• 3:49
  know,
• 3:49
  with
• 3:49
  streamer
• 3:50
  coloration,
• 3:50
  same
• 3:51
  kind
• 3:51
  of
• 3:51
  thing.
• 3:51
  If
• 3:51
  you're,
• 3:52
  you
• 3:52
  know,
• 3:53
  where
• 3:53
  a
• 3:53
  lot
• 3:53
  of
• 3:53
  people
• 3:53
  mess
• 3:54
  up
• 3:54
  with
• 3:54
  when
• 3:54
  the
• 3:54
  water's
• 3:55
  stained
• 3:55
  is
• 3:56
  when
• 3:56
  fish
• 3:56
  are
• 3:57
  in
• 3:57
  what
• 3:57
  we
• 3:57
  call
• 3:57
  the
• 3:57
  kitchen,
• 3:58
  they
• 3:59
  move
• 3:59
  into
• 3:59
  the
• 3:59
  riffles
• 4:00
  for
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  kitchen,
• 4:00
  where
• 4:00
  the
• 4:01
  bugs
• 4:01
  are
• 4:01
  coming
• 4:01
  from
• 4:02
  or
• 4:02
  the
• 4:03
  foam
• 4:03
  line
• 4:03
  that's
• 4:03
  coming
• 4:03
  out
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  riffle
• 4:04
  at
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  head
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  the
• 4:05
  pool.
• 4:06
  And
• 4:06
  when
• 4:06
  you
• 4:06
  focus
• 4:06
  in
• 4:07
  on
• 4:07
  that
• 4:07
  type
• 4:07
  of
• 4:07
  water,
• 4:08
  of
• 4:08
  course
• 4:08
  a
• 4:08
  riffle
• 4:08
  has
• 4:09
  to
• 4:09
  be
• 4:09
  shallower
• 4:09
  than
• 4:09
  a
• 4:10
  deep
• 4:10
  pool.
• 4:10
  That's
• 4:10
  why
• 4:10
  it's
• 4:10
  called
• 4:11
  a
• 4:11
  riffle,
• 4:12
  you
• 4:12
  know,
• 4:12
  because
• 4:12
  you
• 4:12
  got
• 4:12
  broken
• 4:13
  water
• 4:13
  on
• 4:13
  the
• 4:13
  top.
• 4:14
  And
• 4:14
  when
• 4:14
  you're
• 4:15
  fishing
• 4:15
  that,
• 4:15
  that
• 4:15
  type
• 4:16
  of
• 4:16
  water
• 4:17
  you
• 4:17
  can
• 4:17
  get
• 4:17
  away
• 4:18
  with
• 4:18
  like
• 4:18
  light
• 4:19
  flies,
• 4:19
  you
• 4:19
  know,
• 4:19
  like
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  rain
• 4:20
  x
• 4:20
  mop
• 4:20
  that
• 4:20
  Jim
• 4:21
  Estes
• 4:21
  just
• 4:21
  developed.
• 4:22
  We
• 4:22
  use
• 4:22
  a
• 4:22
  lot
• 4:22
  of
• 4:22
  that
• 4:22
  kind
• 4:22
  of
• 4:23
  stuff
• 4:23
  too.
• 4:23
  And
• 4:23
  water's
• 4:24
  only
• 4:24
  a
• 4:24
  foot
• 4:24
  deep.
• 4:25
  They
• 4:25
  will
• 4:25
  see
• 4:25
  a
• 4:25
  light
• 4:26
  colored
• 4:26
  fly
• 4:27
  in
• 4:27
  the
• 4:27
  kitchen
• 4:28
  area
• 4:28
  really
• 4:28
  well
• 4:29
  for
• 4:29
  the
• 4:29
  nips,
• 4:30
  you
• 4:30
  know,
• 4:30
  we're
• 4:30
  talking
• 4:30
  about
• 4:31
  the
• 4:31
  stuff
• 4:31
  that's
• 4:31
  actually
• 4:32
  in
• 4:32
  the
• 4:32
  water
• 4:32
  column
• 4:33
  that,
• 4:34
  that
• 4:34
  will
• 4:34
  work
• 4:34
  better
• 4:35
  than
• 4:35
  a
• 4:35
  darker
• 4:36
  flies.
• 4:36
  In
• 4:36
  other
• 4:36
  words,
• 4:36
  just
• 4:37
  think
• 4:37
  of
• 4:37
  it
• 4:37
  like
• 4:37
  this.
• 4:37
  If
• 4:38
  the
• 4:38
  water's
• 4:38
  chocolate,
• 4:39
  kind
• 4:40
  of
• 4:40
  like
• 4:40
  a
• 4:40
  tea
• 4:40
  collar,
• 4:41
  we
• 4:41
  probably
• 4:41
  wouldn't
• 4:42
  want
• 4:42
  to
• 4:42
  throw
• 4:42
  a
• 4:42
  fly
• 4:42
  that's
• 4:43
  tea
• 4:43
  colored
• 4:43
  because
• 4:43
  then
• 4:44
  it
• 4:44
  doesn't
• 4:44
  stand
• 4:44
  out
• 4:45
  whatsoever.
• 4:45
  So
• 4:46
  that'll
• 4:47
  just
• 4:47
  help
• 4:47
  people
• 4:47
  with
• 4:47
  the
• 4:48
  process
• 4:48
  of
• 4:48
  actually
• 4:48
  fly
• 4:49
  selection
• 4:51
  by
• 4:51
  thinking
• 4:51
  that,
• 4:52
  you
• 4:52
  know,
• 4:52
  thinking
• 4:52
  that
• 4:52
  way.
• 4:53
  Fishing
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  deep
• 4:53
  hole
• 4:54
  of
• 4:54
  course
• 4:54
  is
• 4:54
  kind
• 4:55
  of
• 4:55
  pointless
• 4:55
  in
• 4:55
  dirty
• 4:55
  water
• 4:56
  because
• 4:56
  why
• 4:56
  the
• 4:56
  light's
• 4:57
  not
• 4:57
  available
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  see
• 4:57
  it
• 4:57
  down
• 4:58
  deep.
• 4:58
  So
• 4:59
  not
• 4:59
  a
• 4:59
  lot
• 4:59
  of
• 4:59
  good
• 5:00
  things
• 5:00
  to
• 5:00
  come
• 5:00
  from
• 5:01
  fishing
• 5:01
  to
• 5:01
  fly
• 5:02
  in
• 5:02
  a
• 5:02
  five,
• 5:02
  six
• 5:03
  foot,
• 5:03
  you
• 5:03
  know,
• 5:04
  deep
• 5:04
  hole
• 5:04
  like
• 5:04
  on
• 5:04
  the
• 5:04
  Nantahala
• 5:05
  or
• 5:05
  Tuckaseegee
• 5:06
  river
• 5:07
  when
• 5:07
  it's
• 5:07
  dirty
• 5:07
  like
• 5:08
  this.
• 5:08
  I
• 5:08
  mean,
• 5:08
  that's
• 5:08
  not
• 5:08
  where
• 5:09
  the
• 5:09
  money
• 5:09
  of
• 5:10
  activity
• 5:10
  is
• 5:10
  going
• 5:10
  to
• 5:11
  come
• 5:11
  from.
• 5:12
  Yeah,
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  other
• 5:13
  thing
• 5:13
  too
• 5:13
  is
• 5:13
  you
• 5:13
  get
• 5:14
  kind
• 5:14
  of
• 5:14
  control
• 5:15
  and
• 5:15
  you
• 5:15
  know,
• 5:15
  jigging
• 5:16
  stuff
• 5:16
  like
• 5:16
  mops
• 5:17
  and
• 5:17
  those
• 5:17
  dark,
• 5:17
  dark
• 5:18
  color
• 5:18
  like
• 5:18
  stone
• 5:18
  flies
• 5:19
  and
• 5:19
  things
• 5:19
  like
• 5:19
  that
• 5:19
  can
• 5:20
  be
• 5:20
  really
• 5:20
  effective
• 5:20
  because
• 5:21
  you
• 5:21
  get
• 5:21
  to
• 5:21
  really
• 5:21
  kind
• 5:21
  of,
• 5:22
  you
• 5:22
  know,
• 5:23
  slow
• 5:23
  things
• 5:23
  down
• 5:23
  a
• 5:24
  little
• 5:24
  bit
• 5:24
  and
• 5:25
  kind
• 5:25
  of
• 5:25
  bug
• 5:25
  them,
• 5:26
  get
• 5:26
  them
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  eat,
• 5:26
  right?
• 5:27
  Yeah.
• 5:28
  And
• 5:28
  another
• 5:28
  thing
• 5:28
  is
• 5:29
  staying
• 5:29
  longer
• 5:29
  in
• 5:30
  those
• 5:30
  areas,
• 5:30
  you
• 5:31
  know,
• 5:31
  because
• 5:31
  people
• 5:31
  tend
• 5:31
  to
• 5:31
  get
• 5:32
  in,
• 5:32
  they,
• 5:32
  you
• 5:32
  know,
• 5:32
  make
• 5:33
  a
• 5:33
  dozen
• 5:33
  casts
• 5:33
  and
• 5:33
  they
• 5:34
  move
• 5:34
  on
• 5:34
  to
• 5:34
  the
• 5:34
  next
• 5:34
  hole
• 5:34
  and
• 5:35
  the
• 5:35
  next
• 5:35
  hole.
• 5:35
  And
• 5:35
  that's
• 5:35
  kind
• 5:36
  of
• 5:36
  a,
• 5:38
  a
• 5:38
  bad
• 5:38
  decision
• 5:39
  making
• 5:39
  model
• 5:39
  when
• 5:40
  it's
• 5:40
  like
• 5:40
  this
• 5:40
  kind
• 5:40
  of
• 5:40
  condition.
• 5:41
  So
• 5:41
  you
• 5:42
  want
• 5:42
  to,
• 5:42
  you
• 5:42
  want
• 5:42
  to
• 5:42
  tend
• 5:42
  to
• 5:43
  stay
• 5:43
  a
• 5:43
  little
• 5:44
  longer
• 5:44
  in
• 5:44
  all
• 5:44
  these
• 5:45
  spots
• 5:45
  because
• 5:45
  the
• 5:45
  visibility
• 5:46
  is
• 5:46
  not
• 5:46
  as
• 5:46
  good.
• 5:47
  And
• 5:47
  so
• 5:48
  you
• 5:48
  want
• 5:48
  to
• 5:48
  kind
• 5:48
  of
• 5:48
  probe
• 5:48
  that
• 5:49
  maybe
• 5:49
  spend
• 5:49
  two
• 5:49
  to
• 5:50
  three
• 5:50
  times
• 5:50
  longer
• 5:51
  than
• 5:51
  normal
• 5:53
  because
• 5:53
  you
• 5:53
  need
• 5:53
  to
• 5:53
  almost
• 5:53
  bump
• 5:54
  them
• 5:54
  in
• 5:54
  the
• 5:54
  face.
• 5:54
  I
• 5:55
  mean,
• 5:55
  the
• 5:55
  reality
• 5:55
  is
• 5:56
  because
• 5:56
  of
• 5:57
  the
• 5:57
  coloration,
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  fish
• 5:58
  aren't
• 5:58
  going
• 5:58
  to
• 5:58
  move
• 5:58
  near
• 5:59
  as
• 5:59
  far
• 5:59
  because
• 5:59
  they
• 5:59
  physically
• 6:00
  can't
• 6:00

  unique

  But

  they

• 8:02
  find
• 8:03
  all

  that.
• 8:03
  It's

  when

  you

  see
• 8:05
  something
• 8:06
  that
• 8:06
  looks
• 8:07
  like
• 8:07
  it

  be

  can.
• 8:09
  It

• 8:23
  that's
• 8:24
  the

  five
