You might think catching 3" to 9" Fish is not exciting, well when they are native Brooke Trout and the Brook is only 6' wide and you hook over 50 and Land only about 20 of them. That is exciting. This is how Trish and I spend a Weekend. P.S. YES she caught more than I did.

I found this #3 weight might be a little light for a 6 to 7 lb Blue Fish. But very exciting!

What does a Guide do in the off Season?
Well if he has friends in the Lake Tahoe area and he can teach skiing he heads out there and spends some time Teaching at Heavenly. With some of the best Pros I've ever met.
 
 
Well the winter is over and it's time to start thinking about the rivers and streams. The Mass. Wildlife Dept has been busy stocking the waters with fish and we are gearing up for what we hope will be a EPIC season.
Thank you all for last Season, we are looking forward to 2007

LOOK CLOSE It's not that I took a bad Photo, There was that much winged activity on the Deerfield in the evening, howevere the river was two hours late in going down. But as soon as it did the fish started popping like popcorn. We got a Brookie and a Bow in 40 minutes.

Joe here is a nymph maniac if he doesn’t see a fish rising he’s on the bottom doing what he does best. This fish was so hungry he was trying to eat the net.
