WAITING FOR RAIN
Runoff Starting
tightrope act
--------
.. As the thermometer hits 50°F we are anxiously watching the high country snow pack. We're also keeping tabs on our neighborhood stream discharge.
.. The snow water content is pretty good for this time of year. The rivers are charging along at seasonal norms and, all is well with the world.
.. The neighborhood kids are in short pants and fishing neighbors are trudging through mud and muck to the best catching spots. The prime destinations include the reservoir estuaries of the Madison River and the South Fork of the Madison River.
THE FUZZY WORM
.. Adventurous sled heads pack their gear to Romsett Beach and Cherry Beach Campground on the west shore of Hebgen Reservoir. The little creeks in this area keep the ice at bay and attract the finny dancers.
.. A couple of cell phone images are proof of the effort. A pair of lunch-time fish showed that simple flotsam and small buggies are in the belly of the caught fish. Any fly that resembles a small twig or dead bug will entice a dance partner.
-----
.. We've just received our Covid Vaccine Allotment. Emergency and front-line workers are all vaccinated. Appointment lists are filling up and the process is quick and efficient. Reports include only one dizziness in a post-vaccination patient.
.. Perhaps the dark corners of the pubs will be available for tall tales, lies and secrets. We're ready and plumb tired of shouting at our neighbors.
