The winter weather comes and it goes.  It is Jan. but the weather hasn’t been so bad.  Sure we are getting some cool days , but the fishing is and should continue being pretty good.  Picking the right tides this time of year can be critical for a epic day, but when you only have one day t do your thing you make do.  The coolest thing I’ve done in a while has been on the yak.  A couple of weeks back I was going stir crazy with the new knees and had finally had enough sitting around and physical therapy.  I decided to toss Molly’s yak in a local creek and have a paddle looking for some reds.  I must say I had a blast,  Catching 4 reds and a few trout pitching a 1/4 white doa shrimp.  Nice day of fishing even though the winds were around 20, I would have never known, being sheltered in this small creek.  The reds on the flats have been playing the game as well.  There have been some really nice schools of reds willing to bust Chris Webbers runaway shrimp fly in white.  Looks like the weather is going to be a bit more mild this weekend and I can’t wait to go bust a few lips.
