Pictures from the Ditch- # 9

Another superb weekend on the ditch, and a terrific long 4th of July weekend. Finally the monsoon

rains decided to show up drop a little well needed moisture. Although it dicolored the water a little, the fish enjoyed the very slight drop in the water temperature. 

 "Trixie" was the fly of the weekend, and the larger fish were certainly fond of her. She could shimmy and shake in all the right places.

Big News, Big News- Floatfisher Expecting

Just got the ultra sound and Ms. Floatfisher is expecting a new 10'-6" Fat Boy soon. Placed the order this week for a new addition to the family, our only child was very lonely and was needing someone to

play with. Three to four weeks of very un-confortable summer heat to put up with, should be ready

for late August and fall fishing.

Happy 4th - Alternatives without Fireworks

A Happy 4th of July to All. With the dry conditions through out the west we will have 

to resort to alternative methods of celebrations.

 We will drink libations and ring the bell as we see fit. The more we drink the

more it could ring.

 Dress-up- Ms. Floatfisher dones the fresh new fishing apparel from Simm's,

Check out the new fishing hat and cloak. Will it catch on! Maybe just for the wine drinking crowd.

And we will blow bubbles, tiny bubbles instead of lighting fireworks. Never say never. We alway

have alternatives out there. Happy July 4th from Floatfisher.

Fishing the ditch continues to be very,very good provided you get on the water prior to sun-up and are off by 9:30 to 10 am. Olive and Orange PMX's continue to take your fair share of fish. In addition,

don't forget to give a moderate sized nasty ole foam fly a try for giggles. They will slap it silly too.

For fun, get that boat on the water for a happy hour float, (4:30 pm to 8:30 pm) fish were silly after the caddis along the grassy banks. Also, not a sole out on the water. All the guides are off the water, they can only work 8 hours and the other serious fisherman always put on your standard 7:30 to 4:30. 

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!
