Re: Dropping like a rock

Normally I would be down for this on a Wednesday, but of course I'll be working late tomorrow. If weather is looking good for Sunday and the misses isn't suffering too bad of a hangover from a Saturday night wedding, then I'll be heading out to the Fox somewhere.

It was a gorgeous day to be on the water until the wind picked up. The FSA Fly Rod casts like a dream. Perfect rod for the smaller bodies of water in the area including the Driftless Area. I need to adventure into some of the Fox River creeks soon to try my luck on those.

I was thinking that. I actually have a bunch of top water popper flies and larger clousers I've been saving for Disney.
