Retreat!

Thank goodness for the mancave back at the lodge! Dr’s Hicswa and Eavey and I made good use of our time taking shelter from yet another spring storm. Lunch, a few beers, a couple good cigars, and lots of laughs made for a great afternoon. The trout this morning weren’t digging the cool temps but provided some decent action. Had I known we were in for a short day, I would have had Al pose a nice 15″ brown he successfully nymphed, but with some of our biggest trout showing themselves lately we opted for a quick release and a quick return to the game. This proved to be a good plan right until the torrential rains and lightning rolled in….
