The Day Of The Worm



Today was the first day I got out fishing in several weeks due to working the past three weeks without a day off and the holidays. I got to fish with my friend Rob today. We headed to a limestone stream in South East Pennsylvania the water flow was perfect and the water temp was fourty five dergees. We were both euro nymphing with eleven foot Hardy/Greys streamflex rods. Today was the day of the worm all fish were caught on vladi worms, walts worms and the green rock worm caddis. Rob and I caught fourteen fish in three hours all rainbows and a palimino. The first fish was caught on a size sixteen walts worm,the second on a vladi and the palimino on a rock worm caddis. It was a another good day of fishing.

 This is my Uncle Don who never understands the words give up.He is 72 years old and still beating the bush.
 A beautiful picture of a waterfall on a brooke leading into the Francis Branch of Slate Run.
 The sunrise on a crisp morning in the mountains,doesn't get much better.
 Heading through the mountain laurel in a snowstorm hoping to kick up a deer.
Hunting is over till next year, hope you enjoy the pictures, its time to get back to fishing and tying.
