Great day on the hooch.

I was going to get up early and head out to the club for another day of turkey hunting until a buddy of mine called me last night and suggested we take my new boat (new to me anyways) out on the river. We got on the river at about 7:30 this morning and on my first cast I caught a 16" rainbow. My buddy hooked up while I was trying to boat my fish but lost it. I was thinking this was going to be a great day. However, for the next three hours you would have thought it was the first time I had handled a fly rod and a boat :banginghe . It seemed like every other cast was getting hung up and the foot control for the trolling motor on this boat is bass ackwards from my other one so I was spinning around like an idiot. After losing about 6 or 8 flies and at least that many trout things settled down and we managed to catch several trout before we had to head back. Despite my troubles, it was a great day to be on the river.
