Explored some of the year round trout water to the north of me. Would have been decent tenkara water, but I did more exploring than fishing and stuck to my 3wt. Was nice to encounter only wild fish on this stocked stream.

If you're into fly tying, check out Pheasant Tail Simplicity. I like the "keep it simple" approach. I'm a sucker for soft hackles, so I started with the very first pattern in the book.

The only part of that game that I watched in the back of this pharmacology class was that Sappington FG. 100% of the game was perfect when I had it on. You're welcome. #goducks

Johnson: "If they had no filibuster, they would pack the SCOTUS. You'd go from 9 to 17 or however many liberals they could pack. You would make DC & Puerto Rico into states, which would give 4 additional Democrat senators & make us a permanent minority. You'd see massive restrictions of 2A rights"

By the beginning of November, I'm generally booked solid to January, usually with more expensive procedures.
That is not at all the case this year. I have a decent number of openings next week.
Feels like some kind of indicator of how people feel about the economy

Second time out with a western fly rod -- quick 45 minutes practice casting -- and got my first catches. The pettirosso nymph has worked for me with tenkara and western. Love it.

What a beautiful fall afternoon to slip, fall on your back in a creek, drive 30 miles back towards home, realize you lost your full fly box in the fall, drive back, find it has floated downstream and is barely hanging on a stick, and recover the whole batch.

I am so sick of these chickenshit, no-virtue-having, Confederacy-respecting motherfuckers who've never spent a second of their life in selfless service to others, let alone this country, claiming that they're the true judges of who does and doesn't stand for the foundational truths of this republic.
Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

Went out and saw my friends in the water today. Once again, they were all too small to make it up to shore. But for the first day with a western fly rod, I was just happy to get interest (and a ton of info from the host here).
