The Schweitzer’s Place

Yesterday was my first day of fishing for the year. I took a quick trip to the Assabet river with the fly rod and took several “practice” casts. I was out there less than an hour, but it was still a good time.

I tied on gree wooly bugger and a small grey nymph. I didn’t catch or see a thing. I think I’ll do a little research over the next couple days to find some alternatives. There were definitely a lot of small grey flying creatures all over the place. Maybe I should learn more about bugs.

Boys grow up with a fascination with bugs…then they must study them to fish later in life. It is amazing how life is a big circle…isn’t it!

The weather today is looking like a great day. I can’t seem to get the fish off the brain. I think I’ll go again when I get home tonight…and go again Saturday…and maybe again Sunday.
