Nymph fisherman Vs. Dry fly fisherman

Posted 12-30-2008 at 05:55 PM by jclampwork88

"Two good friends go fishing together, one a nymph fisherman and the other a dry fly fisherman, both believing strongly in catch and release.
Not wanting to get in each other's way they decide that one will fish upstream and the other down, and at an appointed time, meeting back at their starting point and tell of their success.

Deer Creek Reservoir Fishing

Posted 12-29-2008 at 01:31 PM by jclampwork88
