  You

  we

  Well,

  And

  is
• 0:32
  going
• 0:32
  to
• 0:32
  have
• 0:32
  you
• 0:33
  up
• 0:33
  to
• 0:33
  the
• 0:33
  usual
• 0:33
  winter
• 0:34
  shenanigans,
• 0:34
  right?
• 0:35
  Indeed
• 0:36
  it
• 0:36
  is.
• 0:36
  It
• 0:36
  is
• 0:36
  supposed
• 0:37
  to
• 0:37
  get
• 0:37
  chilly
• 0:38
  this
• 0:38
  week.
• 0:38
  We
• 0:39
  got
• 0:39
  a
• 0:39
  little
• 0:39
  bit
• 0:39
  of
• 0:40
  snow
• 0:40
  forecast
• 0:41
  for
• 0:41
  the
• 0:41
  next
• 0:41
  few
• 0:41
  days.
• 0:43
  Nothing
• 0:43
  really
• 0:43
  big
• 0:44
  accumulation
• 0:44
  wise.
• 0:45
  Maybe
• 0:45
  an
• 0:45
  inch,
• 0:46
  inch
• 0:46
  and
• 0:46
  a
• 0:46
  half
• 0:46
  is
• 0:47
  what
• 0:47
  they're
• 0:47
  calling
• 0:47
  for.
• 0:49
  You
• 0:49
  know,
• 0:49
  some
• 0:49
  warmer
• 0:50
  temps.
• 0:50
  I
• 0:50
  think
• 0:50
  Saturday
• 0:51
  supposed
• 0:51
  to
• 0:51
  get
• 0:51
  up
• 0:51
  to
• 0:51
  the
• 0:52
  40s.
• 0:52
  And
• 0:52
  then
• 0:52
  we
• 0:52
  got
• 0:52
  a
• 0:52
  big
• 0:53
  chill
• 0:53
  down
• 0:53
  coming
• 0:55
  over
• 0:55
  the
• 0:55
  weekend
• 0:55
  into
• 0:56
  early
• 0:56
  next
• 0:56
  week.
• 0:57
  So
• 0:57
  it's
• 0:57
  going
• 0:57
  to
• 0:57
  be
• 0:57
  cold.
• 0:58
  So
• 0:58
  wear
• 0:59
  your
• 0:59
  layers,
• 0:59
  wear
• 1:00
  your
• 1:00
  socks
• 1:00
  and
• 1:00
  wear
• 1:01
  your
• 1:01
  thermals
• 1:02
  and,
• 1:03
  and
• 1:03
  nymph
• 1:04
  and.
• 1:05
  Exactly.
• 1:06
  And
• 1:06
  don't
• 1:06
  expect
• 1:07
  many
• 1:07
  dry
• 1:07
  flies.
• 1:08
  Nymphing
• 1:09
  is
• 1:09
  really
• 1:10
  going
• 1:10
  to
• 1:10
  be
• 1:10
  where
• 1:11
  we're
• 1:11
  going
• 1:11
  to,
• 1:11
  what
• 1:11
  we're
• 1:11
  going
• 1:11
  to
• 1:12
  be
• 1:12
  seeing
• 1:12
  for
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  next,
• 1:12
  you
• 1:12
  know,
• 1:13
  few
• 1:13
  weeks
• 1:13
  here.
• 1:14
  Streamers
• 1:15
  have
• 1:15
  been
• 1:15
  moving
• 1:15
  some
• 1:15
  fish
• 1:16
  here
• 1:16
  and
• 1:16
  there
• 1:16
  if
• 1:16
  you
• 1:16
  can
• 1:17
  keep
• 1:17
  them
• 1:17
  down
• 1:17
  low
• 1:17
  and
• 1:18
  move
• 1:18
  them
• 1:18
  slow.
• 1:19
  We
• 1:19
  moved
• 1:20
  some
• 1:20
  decent
• 1:20
  fish
• 1:20
  this
• 1:20
  past
• 1:21
  week
• 1:21
  on
• 1:21
  some
• 1:21
  streamers,
• 1:22
  so
• 1:22
  that'll
• 1:23
  work.
• 1:23
  But
• 1:23
  you
• 1:23
  know,
• 1:23
  the
• 1:24
  water's
• 1:24
  still
• 1:24
  on
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  low,
• 1:25
  clear
• 1:25
  side
• 1:26
  for
• 1:26
  pretty
• 1:27
  much
• 1:27
  everything,
• 1:27
  you
• 1:27
  know,
• 1:28
  J,
• 1:28
  the
• 1:28
  J
• 1:29
  is
• 1:29
  actually
• 1:29
  about
• 1:30
  seasonal,
• 1:30
  so
• 1:30
  the
• 1:30
  J's
• 1:31
  got
• 1:31
  good
• 1:31
  flows
• 1:32
  and
• 1:33
  good
• 1:33
  color.
• 1:33
  But
• 1:33
  spring
• 1:34
  pens,
• 1:35
  fishing
• 1:35
  creek
• 1:35
  all
• 1:35
  remain
• 1:36
  pretty
• 1:36
  low
• 1:36
  and
• 1:37
  pretty
• 1:37
  clear.
• 1:37
  So
• 1:38
  it's
• 1:38
  been
• 1:38
  a
• 1:38
  little,
• 1:38
  little
• 1:39
  tougher,
• 1:39
  more
• 1:39
  technical
• 1:40
  fishing
• 1:40
  winter
• 1:41
  time,
• 1:42
  getting
• 1:42
  those
• 1:42
  bugs
• 1:43
  down,
• 1:43
  you
• 1:43
  know,
• 1:43
  keeping
• 1:44
  them
• 1:44
  slow
• 1:44
  in
• 1:44
  the
• 1:44
  deeper
• 1:45
  pools.
• 1:45
  That's
• 1:45
  really
• 1:45
  where
• 1:46
  the
• 1:46
  fish
• 1:46
  have
• 1:46
  been
• 1:46
  concentrated.
• 1:47
  Yeah,
• 1:47
  sounds
• 1:48
  like
• 1:48
  you're
• 1:48
  throwing
• 1:48
  out
• 1:49
  that
• 1:49
  maybe
• 1:49
  you
• 1:49
  should
• 1:49
  go
• 1:50
  fly
• 1:50
  tying
• 1:50
  vibe.
• 1:51
  That's
• 1:52
  not
• 1:52
  the
• 1:52
  worst
• 1:52
  idea
• 1:53
  I've
• 1:53
  ever
• 1:53
  heard.
• 1:54
  That
• 1:54
  or

  Well,

  folks,
• 3:58
  as
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  always
• 3:58
  say,
• 3:59
  maybe
• 3:59
  it's
• 4:00
  not
• 4:00
  time
• 4:00
  to
• 4:00
  go
• 4:00
  out
• 4:00
  and
• 4:00
  catch
• 4:00
  fish.
• 4:01
  Maybe
• 4:01
  it's
• 4:01
  time
• 4:01
  to
• 4:02
  get
• 4:02
  your
• 4:02
  favorite
• 4:02
  brown
• 4:03
  liquor
• 4:03
  or
• 4:04
  craft
• 4:04
  beer
• 4:04
  and
• 4:04
  sit
• 4:04
  at
• 4:05
  your
• 4:05
  vice
• 4:05
  and
• 4:05
  tie
• 4:05
  and
• 4:06
  watch
• 4:07
  a
• 4:07
  little
• 4:07
  football,
• 4:07
  watch
• 4:07
  a
• 4:07
  little
• 4:08
  basketball,
• 4:08
  something
• 4:08
  like
• 4:09
  that.
• 4:09
  But
• 4:10
  it's
• 4:10
  a
• 4:10
  little
• 4:10
  bit
• 4:10
  late.
• 4:10
  But
• 4:10
  this
• 4:11
  is
• 4:11
  the
• 4:11
  first
• 4:11
  one
• 4:11
  of
• 4:11
  the
• 4:11
  year.
• 4:11
  I
• 4:11
  wish
• 4:12

• 4:12
  a
• 4:12
  happy
• 4:12

  Year.
