I certainly have NOT. But I was feeling ambitious this morning, so here you go

I not only ended up on the wrong section, I was in the wrong river! I was on the Little Gunpowder which isnt even a tailwater. Embarrassing

For the time I invested removing your watermark I thought I was ok to post....

Let it be known, TC3 deserves all the credit for the first pic posted. He also has credit for being bankside for my favorite eat of the year with a little "drop in" style cast. What a site it was, and I'm glad to have had him behind me reminding me we had to leave.

May entry shall be the trout I caught with @Pygmy

[crappyice]

I never submitted May?!?

And the way June is going (2 dinks this evening on the neversink) I'm fearful that big bug month may be a bust for me!

June in the books with a double of 16" rainbows!

I’m gonna have to start tagging along in this one! I have no proof for May unfortunately.

Is this really my June submission? This guy is flat out ugly! Rose twice in 10 minutes and nailed a sulphur on first cast at him.

it's been rough sledding!

Hah that's a different looking brown for sure!

I’ve never really tried swinging soft hackles so tied these up to give it a go for my “official” June fish.. I never remember to take pictures

Had milk on its breath but still counts

Slipped out early yesterday and checked off July. All on the hot spot zebra midge dropper

[crappyice]

Is July really gonna end my run at trout of  the month? I thought it would end in October!

Ran to the Neversink Tuesday and felt like I was fishing in the desert. Water temp and flow and clarity were awesome but zero bugs. Hopper dropper, swing streamers, tiny midges, Etc. nada!
