SAY MY NAME!!!
wow, really? i came to this site to search for pequest conditions and i see a pic of myself. your sneaky james bond photo is of me, about one week after i picked up a fly rod for the first time. sorry for crowding you mate. for what its worth, we had heavy rain on thanksgiving and the river was high and muddy that week..that crease between the main run and spillway outflow harbors an abundance of fish and somewhat clear water during crappy conditions..making it a logical place to try for the newb that i was at the time. yesterday i stood in that same spot and the water was up to my ankles.
more importantly, the pequest tca is not a free for all treble slinging warzone full of @$$holes like you make it seem. Ive been a regular there for the last 4 months and 99% of the guys who fish there are courteous, knowledgable, friendly, and willing to help us young guys out. theres an occasional infiltration of russian and czech dudes who harvest a fish or two but overall the pequest tca offers a great atmosphere and good time for fisherman old, young, experienced, and new to the craft- lets not forget the quality and abundance of BIG fish that are always hungry and easy to catch. There's a reason people flock to this stretch of river..
(disclaimer: i haven't fished it during spring stocking season, but from what i hear i will probably stay away)
maybe the pequest was a warzone back in the day, but its been a great experience frequenting this spot for the last 4 months. I went from knowing nothing to becoming a pretty seasoned fly fisherman and i woulnd't be where i am without the welcoming help of the guys who fish there regularly. (it also helps living a mile away)
and mr utah, instead of taking weird pedo pics so you could type up a post on that lousy blog of yours, you could have offered me some advice or nicely asked me to back off, im always open to constructive criticism from seasoned fishermen (Assuming you actually know what youre doing). and my 'bigger than a golfball' indicator was nothing more than the popular orvis ones that literally 99% of fly guys have used before lol. for what its worth, if you don't like standing in trout, get the heck out of the spillway. the only people who fish there are the old timers who can't wade the river. better yet, from the looks of where you are standing, you might as well walk up to the top of the spillway and snag the "hogs" from the cement chute. you need to relax buddy..get the sand out of your v, it is pretentenious pricks like yourself that give FF a bad name :down:
tight lines fellas, see u out there.
HAHA! he said "Fellas" :hi:
Not for nothing but, no matter what stream your fishing you yeally should not be that close to other anglers. It's just common courtesy. Stay outta my dance space! Welcome aboard, glad you stuck with the fly rod.
