Ethical yes, but he sure is kinda funny looking though.

Is it the giant tripod that's attached to my back when I fish?

Rod you need a head cam. Get the picture from a first hand view

Rodney, Chrome MyKiss and Itosh THANK YOU  so much for allowing us the pleasure of tagging along to that beautiful river.  It didn't matter that I didn't see a fish all day (according to Rodney there were lots ), the scenery and walk itself was enough to make for a wonderful outing.    Next time us fly guys ( and gals) will show Rodney how it's done .
Good food too.  Next time don't cramp me in the back of the car John Bigbooty 

Nice to meet you Itosh.  I felt so bad for CM when he went for a dip though, that water was dang cold

Cheers
Deb

You're welcome Deb. you only got to see a small portion of the river the other day, there are many other locations where the scenary is even more spectacular. We should do another trip up there when we get some rain (even though days like today are too good to give up ). This year has been unusually slow. Last year we were able to connect with over 100 dollies between January and April and a few steelhead as well. Minnow patterns should start working soon, as they did around late March last year when fry started to come out.



Don't feel bad about CM taking a dip, I had to listen to the two of them discussing whether he should try on Itosh's spare clothes for 20 minutes.

Yup, nice to officially meet you two, Deb and Floon.  As was posted by others, the overall scenery was spectacular and doesn't make the skunking feel as bad. 
There are fish in that river, just need to find them first.  Once the water levels go up, fry patterns as seen in Rod's photo will start to produce some fish.
Feel free to keep in touch, and we will have to set up another trip (or three) up there before freshet sets in.

And don't worry, Rod has been outfished by the flyguys up there enought times to know that he should bring out the fly rod, but I think there is something about that red topped Drennan that he just can't resist... lol

You know, I think Deb and I might take you up on that offer Itosh, it was beautiful. Some of those runs had "fish" written all over them. From the treed bank run to the lo-o-o-o-ong sloping dark patch Deb and I found across the island from you you never saw, freestone stream fishing locations extrordinaire. Heck I even SAW a fish or 2 but they wanted nothing to do with this dude. Must be my cologne.   The turns in the river we saw will really help fishing it in higher water since we know how it looks. See all was not in vain.
This river system is one that I have put off and put off again exploring. The beauty and solitude is something everybody needs to experience to understand.
Now, if I ever got a picture of me with one of those high pristine mountains in the back ground like we saw with the rod a folded, I would O.D. Hopefully I will be in shadow so I don't spoil it too much.
I wonder if there is rain in the forecast this week....

Edit: Res. Dog your avatar is killing me. LMAO!

That was their excuse yesterday too.

So that was the scent Bigbooty was talking about.

After this forecasted rain later this week, it should bring some colour to the water.

Yup, very scenic
