Death, Taxes, and Leaky Waders : A John Gierach Trout Bum, A John Gierach Rick

If the Saints get at Manning like they did to Farve, then the Saints WILL win!!!!!! Rick

Nope; At 3:23 the pic is of Summit lake just before the 2009 NFFC's The Next pic is at 3:28 and is The Vedder River Rick

Actually, not that bad. They have REAL tough mouths, so as long as you remember to give it a few real hard hook sets, the fly usually says in well. They do fight hard though, the one in the pic took us WELL into the backing of a 9wt reel 3 times before coming to the boat. If I remember correct, it was a 35-40 minute all out battle with that PIGGIE!!!!! Rick

Enjoy Rick

I agree!!!! Sight casting to these freight trains (Up to 40+lbs) in 18" of water is AWSOME!!!!! The Redfish in the pic was 25.5 lbs and man what a fight. I would compare them like this, The raw power of a Spring Salmon, with the Speed of a Coho!! I can't wait to get back down to the New Orleans area to hunt these beautiful fish again!!! Rick

I am working at the Olympics and by what we have been told, it should be OK. They have been storing snow at the peak of Cypress and are going to truck and Chopper it down when the time comes. We will see, if this does not work, We are in Deep crap because as far as I know there is a HUGE fine to the city if the event can't go on!!!! Rick

NO Snow!!!!!!! Looks like they will be Trucking and Helicoptering in snow for Cyprus mountain. Here is a shot of what it looks like right now! They are also talking about using Hay and wood to build up the Bowl for some of the event and topping it with snow, WHAT A NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!! Rick

That fish at the 2:07 mark was a PIG. 17lb Coho caught on a small clearwater stream locally. I think you may have him confused with someone else. The Guy in the pic is my Buddy Mike DeBono and hi wifes name is Jo. Rick
