Wonderful company, cooperative fish

Pleasant day on the Muskegon today—sunny skies, clearing water, wonderful company, and some willing steelhead to boot.  Friend and neighbor Dick and his pastor Jerry joined me for a repeat of their performance of last spring.  2009 was Jerry’s day; today, it was Dick’s turn to shine.  Dick holds a buck he brought to hand.  Our landing percentage left room for improvement, but we had plenty of action until later in the day when we couldn’t coax a take from the dark water we probed.  Pale egg flies, stones, and caddis were our best patterns.  Thanks, guys, for a most enjoyable day!
