UC, OT and myself fished the ponds on Bidwwell this last week. Casing PT's nymhs to rising fish was the most effective method for these %$#$% fish.
It was amazing to see a trout casually sip a tiny midge floating next to a big mayfly. They wanted the midge,period.
I went 1.8 days without a fish on and only maybe one hit, while UC and OT managed to catch a few fish.
As I was sitting in my float tube I was thinking that I best start making note of all the little tricks, methods, etc that I've learned over the years before I forget anymore of them.
so, here a new trick I learn on this trip.
I, like most float tuber, have these neoprene boots that fit over my waders to protect the soles of my waders. Being older and not as limber as I used to be I would struggle putting on these @#$#$ booties. well, guess what, you don't need to take them off if you don't want to. That first evening after fishing I just struggle a bit to remove my foot without removing the bootie. The next morning I was able to slip my foot in with not much more efort them slipping on my waders. I put my booties on Tue morning, and took them off friday night. Pretty cool.
Try it, you will like it.
