Fishing Adventures: January 2012
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 15, 2012. I believe the latter is the problem. Wednesday, January 11, 2012. Don't bring a knife to a gun fight. I got out of school early yesterday so I rushed home to grab my gear and then it was on to the river. I wadered up and reached for my rod tube. As I pulled the butt end of the rod out of the tube I noticed a problem. I brought a 5 weight rod, not the 10’ 7 weight rod I use for steelhead fishing. The rod, reel, and line would not balance. Monday, January 9, 2012. The last day was...

Fishing Adventures: November: low water and beautiful days
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012/11/november-low-water-and-beautiful-days.html
Friday, November 23, 2012. November: low water and beautiful days. This fall has been marked by low water and warm weather, not exactly the kind of stuff steelhead dreams are made of. There was one maybe two weeks of good fishing after the rains brought in by the remnants of Sandy, too bad I was trapped in the law library and didn’t have a chance to get out for the fun. The water was low and clear. I began by swing streamers as I worked my way down stream and indicator fished my way back up to the car.

Fishing Adventures: Did someone say there were chromers being caught?
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012/10/did-someone-say-there-were-chromers.html
Monday, October 1, 2012. Did someone say there were chromers being caught? OK, I went on this rant yesterday about how combat fishing for steelhead in low clear water was just not worth the ass ache. Sometimes the addiction is just too much to take. I talked to a few people today who were telling stories of catching chrome trout over the weekend. I couldn't take it any more, I gave in to the urge and headed north in search of fresh runners. I was so pissed. I waded out to the middle of the river and ...

Fishing Adventures: Early Fall Fishing
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012/09/early-fall-fishing.html
Sunday, September 23, 2012. I fished this past Monday and today. Fall has definitely arrived bringing cooler temperatures and leaves falling into the water. Monday (9/17) was OK, the water was low and clear, but I caught a few small bass. Today, after a few days of solid rain the flow was up and the water was high and muddy, the fishing was pretty lousy today. Sweet Blogs Worth a Look. Fly Fishing In Yellowstone National Park.

Fishing Adventures: August 2012
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 26, 2012. Day 5: Yellowstone National Park. We got up early and headed North to Yellowstone National Park where we spent the next two nights. The road from Jackson to Yellowstone is a beautiful drive through Grand Teton National Park. There were beautiful vistas of the Teton mountains along the road that where we stopped to take a few pictures. Geyser that blew off in the distance while we we waiting for Old Faithful. We thought we could park closer to Riverside than was possible. We p...

Fishing Adventures: April 2012
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 26, 2012. Last Time Out Before Lockdown. Before I get settled in studying for exams, I took an hour the other night to get a little fishing in on the Grand. The day was sunny, and cool between 50 and 55 degrees, the water was about the same temperature, and it was a tad windy out. The water was super low and clear running about 170 CFS, but I gave it a shot anyway. I had heard there were still some steelhead to be caught and a good number of lake run smallmouth.

Fishing Adventures: Columbus Day Trout Marathon
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012/10/columbus-day-trout-marathon.html
Sunday, October 21, 2012. Columbus Day Trout Marathon. I shot out of bed as the alarm rang at 5:40am. By 6:00am I was on the road headed to central PA. Three hours and forty-five minutes later I pulled into the fly shop to pick up some flies and get a fishing report. By 10:15 I was making the first cast. I began fishing streamers and hooked a few fish. Then I moved down stream to fish dries. I saw a sporadic rise or two, but couldn’t get any trout to rise. The fish was gone. This was a little different.

Fishing Adventures: February 2012
http://boychick-fishingadventures.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 12, 2012. 8220;The tug is the drug”… its cliché, but so true! There is nothing like feeling a trout smash a swung fly. You’re usually, pretty focused on the presentation. Swinging at the right speed, making the fly look alive, and swinging it through the fishiest water. I usually get into a grove as I work through a run. Unless you see a fish following the fly, the strike often comes as a jolting surprise. The last few weeks were pretty rough at school. First view of the mountains. The n...
