Medway Report 15 May 2008

Water temperature 14 C. Saw an almost white deer, a beaver, many ducks and cormorants, a great blue heron, an osprey. Shadbush is in bloom. Dark Mayflies with transparent wings. Caught & released five brook trout - from 9" to 11", and one salmon parr. The Usual #14, and RLM #8. Beautiful sunset. Blackflies a nuisance.

Good Luck and Good Fishin'!

Random Quotes

"Up, up, up he rose, in slow motion, and sucked in the fly. With a lazy toss of his tail, the great fish circled back to his lie. The line tightened, but the salmon didn't seem to realize his dilemma."

"Steve stared in awe as I went tumbling downstream and over the rapids, rod in one hand and wading staff in the other."

"... my eyes are glued to the dead-drifting fly; my left hand gathers in slack line as it approaches the spot. There is no surprise when the trout rises to inhale my offering. I raise the tip, the rod bows - the fish is on!"

"...there is no excuse. A man who can't buy his own fishing gear deserves what he gets."

"They're in that parallel universe with all my odd socks, and the jackknife I lost when I was nine. They're havin' a ball with Dave's keys - livin' large... on Jimmy Hoffa's money!"

"... I looked to my left and there was Steve - his rod tucked under his arm, stripping line with both hands, a monster sea trout closing in on his fly."

"Fishing Derby - an organized fray, involving hordes of anglers, an air horn, and much waiting in queues - in short, a fractious waste of a perfectly good day."
