Blue Wing Hunt on Easter

Easter Weekend treated us well as the weather was absolutely fantastic, so nice that I donned shorts and  sandals for both days. A smidge chilly in the mornings, but really nice the rest of the day. Oh how I do not miss wearing waders.


 Our view for a great deal of the float. What a great way to spend Easter Sunday.
Ms. Floatfisher in Easter Outfit, think she got her holidays mixed up.  Should have fished on St. Paddy's Days.

Blue Wings were out flying today, sure was nice to see noses rising to our flies. Game On.
