  amount
• 0:44
  of

  where
• 0:53
  that
• 0:53
  sun
• 0:53
  kicks
• 0:54
  through
• 0:54
  and
• 0:56
  ends
• 0:56
  up
• 0:56
  being
• 0:56
  closer
• 0:57
  to
• 0:58
  75.
• 0:58
  And
• 0:59
  then
• 0:59
  others,
• 1:00
  other
• 1:00
  days
• 1:01
  where
• 1:01
  it
• 1:01
  stays
• 1:02
  hidden.
• 1:02
  And
• 1:02
  we're
• 1:03
  looking
• 1:03
  at
• 1:03
  more
• 1:03
  like
• 1:04
  mid-40s.
• 1:05
  So
• 1:07
  March.
• 1:08
  Yeah.
• 1:08
  And
• 1:08
  so,
• 1:08
  you
• 1:09
  know,
• 1:09
  interesting,
• 1:09
  right?
• 1:10
  So
• 1:10
  you've
• 1:10
  still
• 1:10
  got
• 1:10
  this
• 1:10
  kind
• 1:11
  of
• 1:12
  milky
• 1:12
  greeny
• 1:13
  tinge
• 1:13
  on
• 1:13
  both
• 1:14
  rivers
• 1:14
  from
• 1:15
  the
• 1:15
  silt
• 1:15
  from
• 1:16
  the
• 1:16
  hurricane.
• 1:16
  But,
• 1:17
  you
• 1:17
  know,
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  last
• 1:18
  time
• 1:18
  we
• 1:18
  spoke,
• 1:18
  you
• 1:18
  were
• 1:18
  getting
• 1:19
  excited
• 1:19
  because
• 1:19
  you're
• 1:19
  starting
• 1:19
  to
• 1:20
  see
• 1:20
  bugs.
• 1:21
  Yeah,
• 1:23
  yeah,
• 1:23
  I
• 1:23
  was
• 1:23
  getting
• 1:23
  real
• 1:24
  fired
• 1:24
  up.
• 1:25
  And
• 1:28
  I'm
• 1:28
  not
• 1:28
  going
• 1:28
  to
• 1:29
  say
• 1:29
  it
• 1:29
  was
• 1:29
  premature,
• 1:30
  but
• 1:33
  I
• 1:33
  do
• 1:34
  need
• 1:34
  to
• 1:34
  be
• 1:34
  honest
• 1:34
  with
• 1:34
  myself
• 1:35
  and
• 1:35
  just
• 1:36
  recognize
• 1:36
  that
• 1:37
  it
• 1:37
  happens
• 1:37
  every
• 1:37
  year
• 1:38
  right
• 1:38
  about
• 1:38
  this
• 1:39
  time.
• 1:40
  It's,
• 1:40
  you
• 1:40
  just
• 1:41
  get
• 1:41
  inconsistent
• 1:41
  hatches.
• 1:43
  We're
• 1:44
  still,
• 1:45
  I
• 1:45
  have
• 1:45
  to
• 1:46
  say
• 1:46
  it's
• 1:46
  the,
• 1:47
  you
• 1:47
  know,
• 1:47
  it's
• 1:47
  that
• 1:47
  siltation
• 1:48
  just
• 1:49
  telling
• 1:49
  the
• 1:49
  bugs
• 1:50
  to
• 1:50
  quiet
• 1:50
  down
• 1:54
  because
• 1:54
  in,
• 1:55
  in
• 1:55
  high
• 1:55
  water
• 1:56
  releases.
• 1:57
  As
• 1:57
  much
• 1:58
  as
• 1:58
  you
• 1:58
  might
• 1:58
  think
• 1:58
  that
• 1:59
  dry
• 2:00
  fly
• 2:00
  fishing
• 2:00
  or,
• 2:01
  or
• 2:02
  bugs
• 2:02
  hatching
• 2:03
  would
• 2:03
  occur
• 2:03
  in
• 2:04
  low
• 2:04
  water,
• 2:06
  most
• 2:06
  of
• 2:07
  the
• 2:07
  time
• 2:07
  it's
• 2:08
  that
• 2:09
  high
• 2:09
  water
• 2:09
  is
• 2:10
  clear
• 2:10
  and
• 2:12
  you
• 2:13
  know,
• 2:13
  it's
• 2:13
  just
• 2:13
  like
• 2:14
  I'm
• 2:14
  going
• 2:14
  to
• 2:14
  try
• 2:14
  not
• 2:14
  to
• 2:14
  dive
• 2:15
  down
• 2:15
  this
• 2:16
  rabbit
• 2:16
  hole,
• 2:16
  but
• 2:17
  it's,
• 2:17
  it's
• 2:18
  just
• 2:18
  like
• 2:18
  any
• 2:18
  other
• 2:20
  predator
• 2:21
  prey
• 2:22
  relationship
• 2:23
  when
• 2:23
  there's
• 2:25
  more
• 2:26
  places
• 2:26
  to
• 2:27
  hide,
• 2:29
  you
• 2:29
  know,
• 2:29
  in
• 2:29
  certain
• 2:30
  places
• 2:30
  there's
• 2:31
  clearly
• 2:32
  some
• 2:32
  more
• 2:32
  safety.
• 2:33
  We
• 2:33
  can
• 2:34
  get
• 2:34
  big
• 2:34
  hatches
• 2:35
  coming
• 2:35
  off
• 2:35
  with
• 2:35
  the,
• 2:36
  with
• 2:37
  the
• 2:37
  water,
• 2:39
  you
• 2:39
  know,
• 2:39
  whenever
• 2:39
  it
• 2:39
  gets
• 2:40
  there.
• 2:40
  And
• 2:40
  then
• 2:41
  you,
• 2:41
  you
• 2:41
  kind
• 2:41
  of
• 2:41
  see
• 2:41
  the
• 2:42
  same
• 2:42
  when
• 2:42
  it's,
• 2:42
  when
• 2:42
  it's
• 2:43
  falling,
• 2:45
  you'll
• 2:45
  see
• 2:46
  bugs
• 2:46
  coming
• 2:46
  off
• 2:46
  in
• 2:47
  different
• 2:47
  places
• 2:47
  and
• 2:48
  in
• 2:48
  different
• 2:49
  numbers.
• 2:49
  So
• 2:50
  that,
• 2:50
  that
• 2:51
  pattern
• 2:51
  is
• 2:51
  just,
• 2:52
  it's
• 2:52
  still
• 2:52
  irregular.
• 2:53
  And
• 2:54
  you
• 2:54
  know,
• 2:55
  at
• 2:55
  the
• 2:55
  same
• 2:55
  time
• 2:56
  I
• 2:56
  am
• 2:56
  seeing
• 2:57
  more
• 2:58
  and
• 2:58
  more
• 2:58
  so,
• 3:00
  you
• 3:00
  know,
• 3:00
  days
• 3:00
  getting
• 3:01
  longer,
• 3:01
  light
• 3:01
  penetration
• 3:02
  continues
• 3:02
  to
• 3:03
  increase,
• 3:03
  consultation
• 3:04
  drops
• 3:04
  a
• 3:05
  little
• 3:05
  bit.
• 3:05
  And
• 3:06
  you
• 3:06
  know,
• 3:07
  the
• 3:07
  fun
• 3:07
  part
• 3:07
  is
• 3:07
  with,
• 3:09
  with
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  clarity
• 3:10
  being
• 3:11
  what
• 3:11
  it
• 3:11
  is.
• 3:12
  It's.
• 3:12
  It's
• 3:12
  just
• 3:13
  something
• 3:13
  that
• 3:13
  is.
• 3:15
  I,
• 3:16
  I
• 3:16
  tried
• 3:16
  to,
• 3:17
  to
• 3:17
  estimate
• 3:19
  on
• 3:19
  a
• 3:19
  trip
• 3:19
  this
• 3:20
  last
• 3:20
  week,
• 3:20
  just
• 3:21
  pointing
• 3:21
  out
• 3:21
  in
• 3:21
  low
• 3:22
  water
• 3:22
  how
• 3:24
  milky
• 3:24
  green
• 3:24
  it
• 3:25
  was,
• 3:26
  thinking
• 3:26
  that
• 3:28
  maybe
• 3:30
  it's.
• 3:31
  It's
• 3:31
  probably
• 3:31
  under
• 3:31
  10%
• 3:32
  of
• 3:32
  days
• 3:33
  that
• 3:34
  normally
• 3:35
  that
• 3:35
  we
• 3:35
  have
• 3:35
  this
• 3:35
  milky
• 3:36
  grain.
• 3:37
  It
• 3:37
  lasts
• 3:37
  for
• 3:37
  a
• 3:38
  couple
• 3:38
  days
• 3:38
  after
• 3:39
  rain
• 3:40
  at,
• 3:40
  you
• 3:40
  know,
• 3:40
  after
• 3:40
  it's
• 3:41
  chocolate
• 3:41
  milk
• 3:42
  and
• 3:42
  then
• 3:42
  it's
• 3:42
  back
• 3:42
  to
• 3:43
  gin
• 3:43
  clear.
• 3:44
  So
• 3:45
  it's,
• 3:45
  it's
• 3:46
  certainly
• 3:46
  not
• 3:46
  something
• 3:47
  I
• 3:48
  complain
• 3:48
  about.
• 3:48
  I,
• 3:49
  I
• 3:49
  do
• 3:49
  miss
• 3:49
  the,
• 3:50
  I
• 3:50
  think
• 3:52
  streamer
• 3:53
  fishing
• 3:53
  clients
• 3:54
  in
• 3:54
  hours
• 3:55
  five,
• 3:55
  six
• 3:55
  or
• 3:56
  seven
• 3:56
  probably
• 3:57
  miss
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  occasional
• 3:59
  stop
• 3:59
  for
• 4:00
  casting
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  risers.
• 4:01
  But,
• 4:03
  you
• 4:03
  know,
• 4:03
  the
• 4:03
  risers
• 4:04
  we
• 4:04
  haven't
• 4:04
  seen,
• 4:06
  just
• 4:07
  like
• 4:07
  the
• 4:07
  streamer
• 4:08
  eaters
• 4:08
  that
• 4:08
  we
• 4:09
  have
• 4:09
  been
• 4:09
  seeing
• 4:09
  are,
• 4:10
  Are
• 4:11
  up
• 4:11
  there
• 4:11
  and
• 4:11
  eating
• 4:12
  with
• 4:12
  commitment.
• 4:12
  So
• 4:14
  fishing
• 4:14
  been.
• 4:15
  Been
• 4:16
  pretty
• 4:16
  good
• 4:16
  with,
• 4:16
  with
• 4:16
  some
• 4:17
  hard
• 4:17
  days
• 4:17
  and
• 4:18
  yeah,
• 4:19
  at
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  end
• 4:19
  of
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  day,
• 4:20
  very,
• 4:22
  very
• 4:23
  normal
• 4:23
  March.
• 4:24
  And
• 4:25
  interesting
• 4:25
  too,
• 4:26
  you
• 4:26
  know,
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  kind
• 4:26
  of
• 4:26
  give
• 4:26
  folks
• 4:27
  an
• 4:27
  idea.
• 4:27
  So
• 4:28
  I
• 4:28
  was
• 4:28
  with
• 4:28
  you.
• 4:28
  I
• 4:28
  don't
• 4:29
  know.
• 4:29
  Gosh,

  couple
• 4:30
  weeks
• 4:30
  ago,

  Two,
• 4:30
  three
• 4:31
  weeks
• 4:31
  ago.
• 4:32
  You
• 4:32
  know,
• 4:33
  when
• 4:33
  we
• 4:33
  talk
• 4:33
  about
• 4:33
  the
• 4:34
  visibility,
• 4:34
  I
• 4:34
  mean,
• 4:35
  you
• 4:35
  can
• 4:35
  still,

• 4:39
  little
• 4:39
  bit.
• 4:40
  You
• 4:40
  start
• 4:40
  to
• 4:41
  lose
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  fly
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  little
• 4:41
  bit.
• 4:41
  But
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  mean,
• 4:42
  it's
• 4:42
  not
• 4:42
  like
• 4:42
  it's,
• 4:43
  you
• 4:43
  know,
• 4:43
  soupy
• 4:44
  milky,
• 4:45
  but
• 4:45
  there's
• 4:45
  definitely
• 4:46
  a
• 4:46
  stain.
• 4:46
  Would
• 4:46
  you
• 4:47
  say
• 4:47
  that's
• 4:47
  about
• 4:47
  right?
• 4:48
  Yeah,
• 4:49
  I
• 4:49
  would
• 4:49
  say
• 4:49
  three
• 4:49
  or
• 4:49
  four
• 4:50
  feet.
• 4:50
  And
• 4:51
  you
• 4:52
  know,
• 4:52
  for
• 4:52
  anyone
• 4:52
  who
• 4:53
  hasn't
• 4:53
  fished
• 4:54
  these
• 4:54
  tail
• 4:54
  waters
• 4:55
  or
• 4:55
  a
• 4:55
  tail
• 4:56
  water,
• 4:57
  I
• 4:57
  remember
• 4:57
  the
• 4:57
  Gunpowder
• 4:58
  and
• 4:58
  Savage
• 5:00
  being
• 5:01
  pretty
• 5:01
  similar.
• 5:02
  Like
• 5:03
  normally
• 5:03
  in
• 5:03
  low
• 5:04
  water
• 5:04
  you're
• 5:04
  counting
• 5:05
  grains
• 5:06
  of
• 5:06
  sand
• 5:07
  and
• 5:07
  not
• 5:08
  pebbles.
• 5:08
  I
• 5:08
  mean,
• 5:08
  you,
• 5:09
  you
• 5:09
  can
• 5:09
  see
• 5:10
  sand
• 5:11
  and
• 5:12
  in
• 5:12
  high
• 5:13
  water
• 5:13
  you're,
• 5:14
  you're
• 5:14
  counting
• 5:15
  pebbles
• 5:15
  and
• 5:16
  blades
• 5:16
  of
• 5:16
  grass
• 5:17
  over
• 5:17
  weed
• 5:17
  beds.
• 5:18
  And
• 5:19
  now
• 5:19
  in
• 5:20
  low
• 5:20
  water,
• 5:21
  it's.
• 5:21
  You
• 5:21
  can
• 5:21
  barely
• 5:22
  make
• 5:22
  out
• 5:23
  what
• 5:24
  the
• 5:24
  substrate
• 5:24
  is
• 5:24
  on
• 5:25
  the
• 5:25
  bottom.
• 5:25
  And
• 5:25
  in
• 5:25
  high
• 5:26
  water
• 5:26
  you're,
• 5:27
  you
• 5:28
  know,
• 5:28
  you
• 5:28
  can't
• 5:28
  see
• 5:29
  boulders.
• 5:32
  So
• 5:32
  the.
• 5:33
  Yeah,
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  visibility
• 5:34
  is
• 5:34
  still
• 5:36
  for,
• 5:38
  for
• 5:38
  any
• 5:38
  other
• 5:38
  body
• 5:39
  of
• 5:39
  water
• 5:39
  and
• 5:39
  any
• 5:40
  other
• 5:40
  freestone
• 5:40
  is
• 5:41
  still
• 5:42
  great.
• 5:43
  I
• 5:43
  mean,
• 5:44
  there's
• 5:45
  really
• 5:45
  no
• 5:45
  other
• 5:45
  way
• 5:45
  to
• 5:45
  describe
• 5:45
  it.
• 5:46
  It's
• 5:46
  just
• 5:46
  super
• 5:46
  fishy.
• 5:47
  It
• 5:47
  looks
• 5:47
  like
• 5:47
  a
• 5:48
  really
• 5:48
  fishy
• 5:49
  level
• 5:49
  of
• 5:49
  clarity
• 5:50
  that
• 5:50
  you
• 5:50
  would
• 5:50
  expect
• 5:50
  from
• 5:51
  a
• 5:51
  limestone
• 5:52
  creek
• 5:55
  when
• 5:55
  it's
• 5:55
  running
• 5:56
  pretty
• 5:56
  good.
• 5:57
  Yeah.
• 5:57
  And
• 5:58
  got
• 5:58
  a
• 5:58
  question
• 5:58
  for
• 5:58
  you
• 5:58
  from
• 5:59
  Andy.
• 5:59
  He
• 5:59
  wanted.
• 6:00
  And
• 6:00
  he's
• 6:00
  excited
• 6:00
  just
• 6:01
  like
• 6:01
  you
• 6:01
  will
• 6:01
  be
• 6:01
  soon.
• 6:02
  Right.
• 6:02
  He
• 6:02
  wanted
• 6:02
  to
• 6:02
  know
• 6:03
  when
• 6:03
  does
• 6:04
  mousing
• 6:04
  start?
• 6:05
  And,
• 6:05
  you
• 6:05
  know,
• 6:06
  how
• 6:06
  do
• 6:06
  you
• 6:06
  vary
• 6:07
  your
• 6:07
  fly
• 6:07
  design
• 6:08
  based
• 6:08
  on
• 6:08
  the
• 6:08
  species
• 6:09
  that
• 6:09
  you're
• 6:09
  pursuing
• 6:09
  with
• 6:10
  the
• 6:10
  mouse.
• 6:13
  Yeah,
• 6:15
  I
• 6:15
  think
• 6:16
  every,
• 6:18
  every
• 6:19
  October,
• 6:19
  every
• 6:19
  Halloween,
• 6:20
  you
• 6:20
  know,
• 6:21
  I'm,
• 6:21
  I'm
• 6:22
  Happy
• 6:22
  gilmore.
• 6:22
  I'm
• 6:23
  saying
• 6:24
  300
• 6:24
  and
• 6:25
  200
• 6:26
  and
• 6:26
  something
• 6:26
  days
• 6:27
  till
• 6:27
  mouse
• 6:27
  and
• 6:27
  season
• 6:28
  begins.
• 6:29
  It's
• 6:30
  really,
• 6:32
  and
• 6:32
  I'm,
• 6:33
  I'm
• 6:33
  going
• 6:33
  to
• 6:33
  not
• 6:34
  dive
• 6:34
  down
• 6:35
  this
• 6:35
  one,
• 6:35
  but
• 6:36
  mice
• 6:37
  are
• 6:38
  mammals.
• 6:41
  If
• 6:42
  they
• 6:42
  haven't
• 6:42
  found
• 6:43
  a
• 6:43
  place
• 6:44
  to
• 6:45
  stay
• 6:45
  warm
• 6:45
  during
• 6:45
  the
• 6:46
  winter,
• 6:46
  the
• 6:46
  tailwaters
• 6:48
  don't
• 6:48
  freeze
• 6:49
  and
• 6:49
  have
• 6:50
  food
• 6:51
  on
• 6:51
  their
• 6:52
  banks.
• 6:53
  So
• 6:53
  to
• 6:53
  the
• 6:54
  extent
• 6:54
  you
• 6:54
  can
• 6:54
  endure
• 6:55
  temperatures
• 6:59
  mousing
• 7:00
  top
• 7:01
  water,
• 7:02
  whatever
• 7:03
  you
• 7:03
  want
• 7:03
  to
• 7:03
  call
• 7:04
  it,
• 7:05
  is,
• 7:06
  you
• 7:06
  know,
• 7:06
  open
• 7:07
  for
• 7:07
  business,
• 7:08
  it's
• 7:08
  really,
• 7:10
  it
• 7:10
  really
• 7:10
  comes
• 7:11
  down
• 7:11
  to
• 7:11
  angler
• 7:11
  comfort.
• 7:12
  So
• 7:14
  I
• 7:15
  was,
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  was
• 7:16
  starting
• 7:16
  to
• 7:16
  think
• 7:16
  about
• 7:16
  it
• 7:17
  last
• 7:17
  week
• 7:18
  with
• 7:18
  some
• 7:18
  of
• 7:18
  these
• 7:18
  75,
• 7:19
  80
• 7:19
  degree
• 7:19
  days.
• 7:20
  That
• 7:21
  said,
• 7:21
  nights
• 7:21
  are
• 7:21
  still
• 7:22
  in
• 7:22
  the,
• 7:22
  you
• 7:22
  know,
• 7:23
  upper
• 7:23
  30s,
• 7:24
  so
• 7:25
  we're
• 7:26
  probably
• 7:26
  still
• 7:26
  a
• 7:26
  couple
• 7:26
  weeks
• 7:27
  out.
• 7:28
  Yeah,
• 7:28
  you
• 7:28
  don't
• 7:29
  want
• 7:29
  to
• 7:29
  have
• 7:29
  to
• 7:30
  put
• 7:30
  your
• 7:30
  waders
• 7:30
  on
• 7:30
  every
• 7:31
  time
• 7:31
  you
• 7:31
  have
• 7:31
  to
• 7:31
  drag
• 7:32
  the
• 7:32
  boat,
• 7:32
  right?
• 7:34
  No,
• 7:35
  but
• 7:35
  man,
• 7:36
  sometimes
• 7:36
  I
• 7:36
  do
• 7:37
  just
• 7:37
  because
• 7:37
  that
• 7:37
  water
• 7:37
  gets
• 7:38
  cold.
• 7:38
  Yeah.
• 7:39
  And
• 7:39
  so
• 7:40
  in
• 7:40
  terms
• 7:40
  of,
• 7:40
  you
• 7:40
  know,
• 7:41
  obviously,
• 7:41
  you
• 7:41
  know,
• 7:42
  your
• 7:42
  main
• 7:42
  game
• 7:42
  is,
• 7:43
  you
• 7:43
  know,
• 7:43
  mousing
• 7:44
  for
• 7:44
  big
• 7:44
  trout
• 7:44
  at
• 7:45
  night,
• 7:45
  but
• 7:45
  if
• 7:45
  you
• 7:45
  were
• 7:45
  going
• 7:46
  for
• 7:46
  bass
• 7:46
  or
• 7:47
  another
• 7:47
  species,
• 7:48
  how
• 7:48
  would
• 7:48
  you
• 7:48
  change
• 7:49
  your
• 7:49
  fly
• 7:49
  design?
• 7:53
  Yeah,
• 7:53
  so
• 7:53
  I'm
• 7:54
  just
• 7:54
  going
• 7:54
  to
• 7:54
  get
• 7:54
  away
• 7:55
  from,
• 7:56
  from
• 7:57
  top
• 7:57
  water
• 7:58
  and,
• 7:58
  and
• 7:58
  kind
• 7:58
  of
• 7:58
  talk
• 7:59
  about
• 8:03
  fly
• 8:03
  design
• 8:04
  in
• 8:04
  general.
• 8:04
  I,
• 8:04
  I
• 8:05
  think
• 8:05
  that
• 8:05
  there's,
• 8:07
  you
• 8:08
  get
• 8:08
  three
• 8:08
  different
• 8:09
  types
• 8:10
  of
• 8:10
  eats,
• 8:13
  you
• 8:14
  know,
• 8:14
  rainbow
• 8:15
  trout,
• 8:15
  steelhead,
• 8:16
  whatever
• 8:16
  you
• 8:16
  want
• 8:16
  to
• 8:16
  call
• 8:16
  them.
• 8:17
  They're
• 8:18
  oftentimes.
• 8:19
  And
• 8:19
  this
• 8:19
  is,
• 8:19
  this
• 8:20
  is
• 8:20
  from
• 8:20
  watching
• 8:21
  fish
• 8:22
  eat
• 8:22
  flies
• 8:23
  and,
• 8:23
  and
• 8:23
  then
• 8:24
  also
• 8:24
  looking
• 8:25
  at
• 8:25
  where
• 8:26
  hook
• 8:27
  points
• 8:27
  are
• 8:27
  and
• 8:28
  which
• 8:28
  hook
• 8:28
  points
• 8:28
  and
• 8:29
  with
• 8:30
  articulated
• 8:31
  flies,
• 8:31
  single
• 8:32
  hook
• 8:34
  lures
• 8:35
  with
• 8:35
  three
• 8:35
  trebles
• 8:36
  and
• 8:37
  lures
• 8:37
  with
• 8:38
  two
• 8:41
  browns.
• 8:42
  Browns
• 8:42
  eat
• 8:42
  right
• 8:43
  in
• 8:43
  the
• 8:43
  middle.
• 8:45
  You
• 8:45
  know,
• 8:45
  whether
• 8:46
  or
• 8:46
  not
• 8:46
  they're,
• 8:46
  they're
• 8:46
  trying
• 8:47
  to,
• 8:47
  you
• 8:47
  know,
• 8:47
  nudge
• 8:48
  a
• 8:48
  fish
• 8:48
  to
• 8:48
  turn
• 8:48
  it
• 8:49
  and
• 8:49
  eat
• 8:49
  it
• 8:49
  head
• 8:50
  head
• 8:50
  first.
• 8:52
  Someone
• 8:53
  sent
• 8:53
  me
• 8:53
  some
• 8:53
  video,
• 8:54
  you
• 8:54
  know,

• 8:56
  of,
• 8:57

  with
• 9:00
  Al
• 9:00
  Wies
• 9:00
  or
• 9:01

• 9:01
  And
• 9:02
  it's
• 9:02
  like,
• 9:02
  all
• 9:02
  right,
• 9:02
  well,
• 9:03
  right,
• 9:03
  wrong
• 9:03
  or
• 9:04
  indifferent,
• 9:04
  what's,
• 9:06
  what
• 9:06
  is
• 9:06
  the
• 9:07
  same
• 9:07
  thing
• 9:07
  that
• 9:07
  is
• 9:07
  happening

  time
• 9:09
  from
• 9:09
  a
• 9:10

• 9:11
  up
• 9:12
  perspective.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:13
  it's
• 9:14
  that,
• 9:15
  I
• 9:15
  mean,
• 9:16
  gosh,
• 9:16
  I,
• 9:16
  I
• 9:16
  have
• 9:17
  this

  super
• 9:21
  bitey
• 9:21
  day
• 9:22
  in
• 9:22
  big
• 9:22
  water
• 9:23
  with
• 9:23
  this,
• 9:24
  you
• 9:25
  know,
• 9:25
  nothing
• 9:25
  crazy.
• 9:26
  It's
• 9:26
  a
• 9:26
  good
• 9:26
  trout.
• 9:27
  20
• 9:28
  ended
• 9:28
  up
• 9:28
  being

• 9:29
  But
• 9:29
  like
• 9:29
  that's,
• 9:30
  it's
• 9:31
  not

  crazy.
• 9:31
  Big

  blowing
• 9:34
  through
• 9:34
  the
• 9:34
  surface,
• 9:35
  came
• 9:35
  all
• 9:36
  the
• 9:36
  way
• 9:36
  out
• 9:36
  of
• 9:36
  the
• 9:36
  water.
• 9:37
  Vertically,
• 9:38
  I
• 9:38
  had
• 9:39
  a
• 9:39
  single
• 9:39
  hook.
• 9:40
  It's
• 9:40
  a
• 9:40
  muskie
• 9:41
  fly.
• 9:41
  So
• 9:42
  we'll
• 9:42
  dovetail
• 9:42
  on
• 9:43
  that
• 9:43
  a
• 9:43
  little
• 9:43
  bit
• 9:44
  all
• 9:45
  the
• 9:45
  way
• 9:45
  through
• 9:45
  the
• 9:45
  surface.
• 9:46
  That
• 9:46
  hook
• 9:46
  point
• 9:47
  was
• 9:47
  in
• 9:47
  the
• 9:47
  roof
• 9:48
  of
• 9:48
  its
• 9:48
  mouth
• 9:49
  and
• 9:50
  it
• 9:50
  was
• 9:50
  eating
• 9:51
  that
• 9:51
  thing
• 9:52
  squarely
• 9:52
  in
• 9:52
  the
• 9:52
  middle.
• 9:56
  Fishing
• 9:57
  the
• 9:57
  small
• 9:59
  lures
• 10:00
  with,
• 10:01
  with
• 10:01
  two
• 10:01
  trebles
• 10:02
  on
• 10:02
  them,
• 10:02
  it's,
• 10:03
  I
• 10:03
  mean,
• 10:03
  it's
• 10:03
  just
• 10:04
  crazy
• 10:05
  that
• 10:06
  this,
• 10:07
  the
• 10:07
  speed
• 10:07
  and
• 10:08
  the
• 10:08
  accuracy
• 10:08
  that
• 10:08
  they
• 10:09
  have,
• 10:10
  you
• 10:10
  know,
• 10:10
  especially
• 10:10
  the,
• 10:11
  the
• 10:11
  smaller
• 10:12
  fish,
• 10:12
  you'll,
• 10:13
  you'll
• 10:13
  see
• 10:13
  them
• 10:13
  come
• 10:13
  in
• 10:14
  on,
• 10:14
  on
• 10:14
  just
• 10:14
  that,
• 10:16
  that
• 10:16
  middle
• 10:17
  treble
• 10:18
  and
• 10:21
  it's,
• 10:22
  you
• 10:23
  know,
• 10:23
  it's
• 10:23
  an
• 10:23
  inch,
• 10:24
  inch
• 10:24
  and
• 10:24
  a
• 10:24
  half
• 10:24
  away
• 10:25
  from
• 10:25
  the
• 10:25
  other
• 10:25
  one
• 10:26
  and,
• 10:26
  and
• 10:26
  they
• 10:26
  didn't
• 10:27
  touch,
• 10:28
  they
• 10:28
  hit
• 10:28
  right
• 10:28
  in
• 10:29
  the
• 10:29
  belly.
• 10:30
  So
• 10:30
  from
• 10:31
  a
• 10:31
  fly
• 10:31
  design
• 10:31
  perspective,
• 10:35
  boy,
• 10:35
  Marv,
• 10:36
  you're
• 10:36
  gonna
• 10:36
  have
• 10:36
  to
• 10:36
  shut
• 10:37
  this
• 10:37
  down
• 10:37
  at
• 10:37
  some
• 10:37
  point.
• 10:40
  I,
• 10:41
  I've,
• 10:41
  I've,
• 10:42
  I'll
• 10:43
  use
• 10:43
  game
• 10:43
  changers
• 10:44
  as
• 10:44
  an
• 10:45
  example
• 10:45
  of,
• 10:46
  of
• 10:46
  kind
• 10:46
  of
• 10:47
  how
• 10:47
  I
• 10:47
  fluctuate
• 10:49
  and
• 10:50
  then
• 10:51
  maybe
• 10:51
  the
• 10:51
  swim
• 10:52
  bug
• 10:52
  a
• 10:52
  little
• 10:52
  bit.
• 10:54
  But
• 10:54
  having
• 10:55
  two
• 10:55
  hooks
• 10:56
  in
• 10:57
  can
• 10:57
  lead
• 10:57
  to
• 10:57
  the
• 10:58
  dry
• 10:58
  dropper
• 10:59
  conundrum
• 11:00
  of
• 11:01
  when
• 11:02
  you
• 11:02
  get
• 11:02
  a
• 11:02
  big
• 11:03
  eat
• 11:03
  on
• 11:03
  a,
• 11:03
  on
• 11:03
  a
• 11:04
  game
• 11:04
  changer,
• 11:06
  Whether
• 11:06
  or
• 11:06
  not
• 11:06
  the
• 11:07
  hinges
• 11:07
  take
• 11:07
  away,
• 11:08
  you
• 11:08
  know,
• 11:09
  that,
• 11:09
  that
• 11:10
  hook
• 11:10
  set
• 11:10
  force,
• 11:11
  we're
• 11:12
  gonna
• 11:12
  leave
• 11:12
  that
• 11:12
  alone.
• 11:15
  If
• 11:15
  you
• 11:15
  got
• 11:16
  that
• 11:16
  trailer
• 11:18
  and
• 11:19
  it
• 11:19
  gets
• 11:19
  on
• 11:19
  the
• 11:20
  outside
• 11:20
  of
• 11:20
  their
• 11:20
  face
• 11:22
  or
• 11:22
  even
• 11:22
  on
• 11:22
  the
• 11:23
  inside
• 11:23
  of
• 11:23
  their
• 11:23
  mouth,
• 11:23
  if
• 11:23
  it's
• 11:24
  a
• 11:24
  big
• 11:24
  fish
• 11:24
  and
• 11:24
  it
• 11:24
  just
• 11:25
  ends
• 11:25
  up
• 11:25
  eating
• 11:26
  the
• 11:26
  ladder,
• 11:26
  you
• 11:26
  know,
• 11:27
  the
• 11:27
  back
• 11:27
  2/3
• 11:28
  of
• 11:28
  the
• 11:28
  fly,
• 11:30
  that,
• 11:31
  that
• 11:31
  opposing
• 11:32
  tension
• 11:33
  is,
• 11:34
  is
• 11:35
  gonna
• 11:35
  pull
• 11:36
  that,
• 11:37
  that
• 11:37
  bigger
• 11:38
  hook
• 11:38
  out
• 11:38
  so
• 11:38
  you,
• 11:38
  you
• 11:39
  have
• 11:39
  a
• 11:39
  smaller,
• 11:39
  stickier
• 11:40
  hook,
• 11:40
  let's
• 11:41
  say
• 11:41
  with
• 11:42
  not
• 11:42
  as
• 11:42
  good
• 11:43
  of
• 11:43
  a
• 11:43
  set.
• 11:43
  Or
• 11:44
  maybe
• 11:44
  it's
• 11:44
  on
• 11:44
  the
• 11:45
  outside
• 11:45
  of
• 11:45
  their
• 11:45
  face
• 11:47
  pulling
• 11:48
  on
• 11:49
  the
• 11:49
  larger,
• 11:52
  harder
• 11:52
  to
• 11:52
  set
• 11:53
  hook
• 11:54
  that's
• 11:54
  probably
• 11:55
  on
• 11:55
  the
• 11:55
  inside
• 11:55
  of
• 11:55
  their
• 11:55
  mouth,
• 11:57
  probably
• 11:58
  on
• 11:58
  a
• 11:58
  bonier
• 11:58
  part
• 11:58
  of
• 11:59
  their
• 11:59
  mouth.
• 12:00
  And
• 12:01
  so
• 12:01
  I,
• 12:01
  I,
• 12:01
  I
• 12:02
  started
• 12:02
  to,
• 12:03
  after
• 12:03
  that
• 12:03
  happened
• 12:04
  enough,
• 12:05
  I
• 12:05
  started
• 12:05
  to
• 12:05
  just
• 12:05
  do
• 12:06
  one
• 12:06
  hook
• 12:06
  point
• 12:07
  in
• 12:08
  the
• 12:08
  middle.
• 12:08
  And
• 12:08
  a
• 12:08
  little
• 12:08
  of
• 12:09
  that
• 12:09
  is,
• 12:09
  is
• 12:09
  taken
• 12:10
  from,
• 12:11
  from
• 12:11
  Blaine.
• 12:12
  I
• 12:12
  fished
• 12:12
  with
• 12:12
  Chris
• 12:12
  Willen
• 12:13
  a
• 12:13
  number
• 12:13
  of
• 12:13
  years
• 12:13
  ago
• 12:15
  and
• 12:15
  he
• 12:15
  showed
• 12:15
  me
• 12:16
  this,
• 12:16
  this
• 12:16
  T
• 12:16
  bone
• 12:17
  that
• 12:17
  Blaine
• 12:18
  had
• 12:18
  tied.
• 12:18
  And
• 12:19
  I
• 12:19
  remember
• 12:19
  running
• 12:20
  his
• 12:20
  hands
• 12:20
  down,
• 12:21
  sort
• 12:21
  of
• 12:22
  slim
• 12:23
  it
• 12:23
  out
• 12:23
  and
• 12:24
  just
• 12:24
  showing
• 12:24
  this.
• 12:26
  It's
• 12:26
  almost
• 12:27
  like
• 12:27
  a
• 12:27
  catfish
• 12:27
  hook,
• 12:28
  this
• 12:28
  little,
• 12:28
  this
• 12:28
  dirty
• 12:29
  hook,
• 12:30
  you
• 12:30
  know,
• 12:30
  maybe
• 12:31
  three
• 12:31
  out
• 12:31
  or
• 12:31
  four.
• 12:32
  Like
• 12:32
  in
• 12:32
  the,
• 12:34
  the
• 12:34
  hook
• 12:34
  point
• 12:35
  was
• 12:35
  at
• 12:35
  like
• 12:35
  the
• 12:35
  back
• 12:36
  2/3
• 12:37
  of
• 12:38
  the
• 12:38
  fly.
• 12:39
  And
• 12:39
  it's
• 12:39
  just
• 12:40
  when
• 12:40
  you
• 12:40
  get
• 12:40
  an
• 12:41
  eat,
• 12:42
  you
• 12:43
  want
• 12:43
  as
• 12:43
  much,
• 12:45
  you
• 12:45
  always
• 12:45
  want
• 12:45
  as
• 12:46
  much
• 12:46
  advantage
• 12:47
  as
• 12:47
  possible.
• 12:48
  And
• 12:49
  so
• 12:49
  sure,
• 12:49
  two
• 12:50
  hook
• 12:50
  points
• 12:50
  can
• 12:50
  be
• 12:51
  good,
• 12:51
  but
• 12:52
  man,
• 12:53
  if
• 12:53
  you
• 12:53
  put
• 12:53
  that
• 12:53
  thing
• 12:54
  Two
• 12:54
  thirds
• 12:54
  of
• 12:54
  the
• 12:54
  way
• 12:55
  back,
• 12:56
  more
• 12:56
  than
• 12:57
  halfway
• 12:57
  back.
• 13:01
  That's
• 13:01
  for,
• 13:02
  for
• 13:02
  brown
• 13:02
  trout,
• 13:03
  for
• 13:03
  muskie,
• 13:05
  that's
• 13:05
  their,
• 13:06
  their,
• 13:06
  that
• 13:06
  hook
• 13:06
  point
• 13:07
  is
• 13:07
  going
• 13:07
  to
• 13:07
  find
• 13:07
  their
• 13:08
  face.
• 13:09
  And
• 13:12
  the
• 13:12
  only
• 13:12
  thing,
• 13:12
  I
• 13:13
  mean
• 13:13
  there's
• 13:13
  nothing
• 13:13
  getting
• 13:14
  in
• 13:14
  the
• 13:14
  way
• 13:14
  outside
• 13:14
  of
• 13:15
  you.
• 13:15
  Not
• 13:15
  strip
• 13:15
  setting.
• 13:16
  Like
• 13:16
  when
• 13:16
  you're
• 13:17
  strip
• 13:17
  setting
• 13:17
  100%,
• 13:18
  you're
• 13:19
  pointing
• 13:19
  your
• 13:19
  rod,
• 13:19
  you
• 13:19
  don't
• 13:20
  have
• 13:20
  bow
• 13:20
  in
• 13:20
  your
• 13:20
  line.
• 13:20
  You're
• 13:21
  not
• 13:21
  lifting
• 13:21
  your
• 13:21
  rod,
• 13:21
  you're
• 13:22
  not
• 13:22
  sweeping
• 13:22
  your
• 13:22
  rod
• 13:23
  to
• 13:23
  the
• 13:23
  left
• 13:23
  or
• 13:23
  pushing
• 13:24
  it
• 13:24
  down.
• 13:25
  You're
• 13:25
  just
• 13:25
  pulling
• 13:26
  on
• 13:26
  it.
• 13:26
  I
• 13:26
  mean
• 13:26
  dude,
• 13:27
  you
• 13:27
  can,
• 13:27
  you
• 13:27
  can
• 13:27
  break
• 13:29
  30
• 13:29
  pound
• 13:29
  mono.
• 13:30
  It's
• 13:30
  kind
• 13:30
  of
• 13:30
  hard,
• 13:30
  but
• 13:30
  I
• 13:31
  mean
• 13:31
  you
• 13:31
  can
• 13:32
  pull
• 13:32
  really
• 13:33
  hard
• 13:33
  on
• 13:34
  a
• 13:34
  direct
• 13:34
  strip
• 13:35
  set.
• 13:35
  And
• 13:35
  all
• 13:35
  of
• 13:35
  that
• 13:36
  force
• 13:36
  is
• 13:36
  going
• 13:36
  to
• 13:37
  that,
• 13:37
  to
• 13:37
  that
• 13:37
  hook
• 13:37
  point.
• 13:40
  So
• 13:40
  I,
• 13:41
  I,
• 13:41
  I'm
• 13:42
  partial
• 13:42
  to
• 13:43
  the
• 13:43
  concept
• 13:44
  of,
• 13:44
  of
• 13:45
  reducing
• 13:45
  the
• 13:45
  number
• 13:45
  of
• 13:46
  hook
• 13:46
  points.
• 13:47
  Swim
• 13:47
  bug,
• 13:48
  for
• 13:48
  example,
• 13:48
  I
• 13:49
  like,
• 13:50
  you
• 13:51
  know
• 13:51
  that
• 13:51
  big
• 13:51
  gap
• 13:52
  in
• 13:52
  the
• 13:52
  middle
• 13:52
  with
• 13:52
  a
• 13:52
  shank.
• 13:53
  And
• 13:54
  then,
• 13:55
  you
• 13:56
  know,

• 13:57
  B10
• 13:58
  S6
• 13:58
  is
• 13:58
  just,
• 14:00
  it's
• 14:00
  strong
• 14:00
  enough
• 14:01
  for
• 14:01
  most
• 14:01
  trout.
• 14:02
  I
• 14:03
  don't
• 14:03
  really
• 14:03
  like
• 14:03
  it
• 14:03
  for
• 14:03
  striper,
• 14:04
  but
• 14:06
  a
• 14:06
  really
• 14:07
  sticky
• 14:07
  smaller
• 14:08
  hook
• 14:08
  in
• 14:08
  the
• 14:08
  back
• 14:10
  and
• 14:10
  that
• 14:11
  front
• 14:11
  hook
• 14:11
  is
• 14:12
  oftentimes
• 14:12
  it's.
• 14:13
  So
• 14:13
  I'm
• 14:13
  tying
• 14:13
  that
• 14:14
  for
• 14:14
  keel,
• 14:15
  for
• 14:15
  momentum,
• 14:17
  for
• 14:18
  swimming
• 14:18
  and
• 14:18
  casting
• 14:19
  dynamics.
• 14:20
  And,
• 14:21
  and,
• 14:21
  and
• 14:22
  you
• 14:22
  know,
• 14:22
  they
• 14:22
  end
• 14:22
  up
• 14:24
  getting
• 14:24
  that
• 14:24
  back
• 14:25
  hook
• 14:25
  on
• 14:25
  the
• 14:25
  inside
• 14:26
  of
• 14:26
  their
• 14:26
  mouth.
• 14:26
  And
• 14:27
  so
• 14:27
  there's,
• 14:27
  there's
• 14:28
  a
• 14:28
  lot
• 14:28
  of
• 14:28
  intentionality
• 14:29
  that
• 14:29
  I
• 14:29
  sort
• 14:30
  of
• 14:30
  bypass
• 14:31
  when
• 14:31
  talking
• 14:31
  about
• 14:32
  that
• 14:33
  fly
• 14:33
  and
• 14:35
  most
• 14:35
  of
• 14:35
  my
• 14:35
  flies.
• 14:36
  But
• 14:37
  point
• 14:37
  being
• 14:38
  with,
• 14:38
  with,
• 14:38
  with
• 14:39
  trout,
• 14:39
  with
• 14:39
  muskie,
• 14:40
  like
• 14:40
  if
• 14:41
  your
• 14:41
  hook
• 14:41
  point
• 14:43
  on
• 14:43
  the
• 14:43
  back
• 14:43
  hook
• 14:45
  is
• 14:47
  somewhere
• 14:48
  within
• 14:49
  like
• 14:49
  a
• 14:49
  third
• 14:50
  of
• 14:51
  the
• 14:51
  body
• 14:51
  length
• 14:52
  away
• 14:52
  from
• 14:52
  the
• 14:53
  bend
• 14:53
  of
• 14:54
  the
• 14:54
  front
• 14:54
  hook,
• 14:55
  it's
• 14:55
  too
• 14:55
  close.
• 14:56
  That
• 14:56
  front
• 14:57
  hook
• 14:57
  is,
• 14:57
  is
• 14:57
  effectively
• 14:58
  a
• 14:58
  bite
• 14:58
  guard.
• 15:02
  Now
• 15:02
  with
• 15:02
  smallmouth,
• 15:03
  you,
• 15:03
  you
• 15:03
  know,
• 15:04
  you
• 15:04
  look
• 15:04
  at
• 15:04
  the
• 15:05
  same
• 15:05
  fly
• 15:06
  and,
• 15:06
  and
• 15:06
  how
• 15:07
  they
• 15:08
  would
• 15:08
  eat
• 15:08
  it.
• 15:08
  With
• 15:08
  the
• 15:09
  swim
• 15:09
  bug,
• 15:09
  for
• 15:09
  example,
• 15:12
  they're
• 15:12
  going
• 15:12
  head
• 15:13
  first.
• 15:13
  There's
• 15:13
  they,
• 15:13
  they
• 15:14
  eat,
• 15:14
  they
• 15:15
  flare
• 15:15
  their
• 15:15
  gills,
• 15:17
  they
• 15:17
  swim
• 15:18
  right
• 15:18
  through
• 15:18
  it
• 15:19
  and,
• 15:21
  and,
• 15:21
  and
• 15:22
  vacuum
• 15:22
  it
• 15:22
  in.
• 15:24
  And
• 15:24
  that
• 15:24
  back
• 15:25
  hook
• 15:25
  ends
• 15:25
  up
• 15:26
  on
• 15:26
  the
• 15:26
  outside
• 15:27
  of
• 15:27
  their
• 15:27
  mouth
• 15:27
  a
• 15:27
  lot.
• 15:28
  And
• 15:28
  so
• 15:29
  with,
• 15:30
  with
• 15:30
  smallmouth
• 15:31
  you
• 15:31
  can
• 15:31
  certainly
• 15:31
  afford
• 15:32
  to
• 15:33
  get
• 15:33
  away
• 15:33
  with
• 15:34
  leaning
• 15:34
  more
• 15:34
  towards
• 15:35
  the
• 15:35
  front
• 15:35
  or
• 15:38
  just
• 15:38
  going
• 15:39
  one
• 15:40
  point
• 15:41
  just
• 15:41
  because
• 15:42
  they're
• 15:43
  going
• 15:43
  to
• 15:43
  eat
• 15:43
  the
• 15:43
  thing.
• 15:44
  And
• 15:45
  same
• 15:46
  principle
• 15:46
  with
• 15:47
  reducing
• 15:48
  the
• 15:49
  number
• 15:49
  of
• 15:49
  competing
• 15:50
  points
• 15:51
  of
• 15:51
  force,
• 15:52
  pulling
• 15:53
  things
• 15:53
  out
• 15:55
  or
• 15:55
  just
• 15:56
  spreading
• 15:56
  that
• 15:56
  hook
• 15:56
  set
• 15:57
  over
• 15:57
  two
• 15:57
  different
• 15:58
  points.
• 15:58
  So
• 16:02
  yeah,
• 16:02
  musky.
• 16:03
  Same
• 16:03
  principles.
• 16:04
  Brown
• 16:04
  trout
• 16:04
  just
• 16:05
  everything's
• 16:05
  a
• 16:05
  little
• 16:06
  upsized.
• 16:06
  But
• 16:06
  I
• 16:06
  mean
• 16:08
  you
• 16:09
  don't
• 16:09
  need
• 16:09
  to
• 16:09
  go
• 16:09
  6o,
• 16:10
  you
• 16:10
  don't
• 16:10
  need
• 16:10
  to
• 16:10
  go
• 16:11
  7o,
• 16:11
  you
• 16:11
  know,
• 16:12
  2os
• 16:13
  3
• 16:14
  odds,
• 16:15
  depending
• 16:16
  on
• 16:17
  what
• 16:18
  type
• 16:18
  of
• 16:18
  hook
• 16:18
  they
• 16:18
  are.
• 16:18
  As
• 16:19
  long
• 16:19
  as
• 16:19
  they're
• 16:20
  heavy
• 16:20
  enough
• 16:20
  gauge,
• 16:24
  that
• 16:24
  can
• 16:24
  increase
• 16:24
  your
• 16:25
  hookup
• 16:25
  ratio.
• 16:25
  As
• 16:26
  long
• 16:26
  as
• 16:27
  that
• 16:27
  hook
• 16:27
  point
• 16:27
  isn't
• 16:28
  blocked
• 16:28
  from
• 16:28
  something
• 16:28
  bigger
• 16:29
  in
• 16:29
  front
• 16:30
  of
• 16:30
  it
• 16:30
  and
• 16:32
  it's
• 16:32
  in
• 16:32
  the
• 16:33
  behind.
• 16:34
  Let's
• 16:34
  say
• 16:36
  the
• 16:37
  front
• 16:37
  half
• 16:38
  of
• 16:38
  the
• 16:38
  fly,
• 16:38
  but
• 16:38
  really
• 16:39
  the
• 16:39
  front
• 16:39
  two
• 16:39
  thirds.
• 16:41
  Well,

  We'll
