BACK IN BUSINESS FOLKS! NO MORE FLOOD STAGE AND SOME LAKE TROLLING FUN OVER THE WEEKEND!

HURRAY!!!!..............no more 10,000 flood cfs- river back to 5,100 this afternoon- time to get"safely' on the river. Last weekend as the river went to the second highest flood stage in 100 years at 10,000 cfs, some idiots almost drowned and risked the lives of Sheriffs and DNR game wardens cause of their stupidity- thus they shut down the boat launches.
 So now we are ready to go steelheading and hatches for trout.
 As Peter Basta and I made a safe and cautious choice not to put the lives of our clients in jeopardy fore the almighty dollar, we went trolling with switch rods and baitfish patterns up north at a lake that I heard was known for producing big browns and atlantic salmon.....uh..hmmm!-
ENJOY THE SLAPSTICK VIDEOS-WE WERE TWO CLUELESS FLY ROD TROLLING GOOFS HAVING FUN- HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR PLEASE!

AND THIS FINAL OUTCOME........DID NOT COME!!!.......WE WERE TWO CLUELESS RIVER GUIDES WITH NO FISH FINDER AND TROLLING 'OLD SCHOOL" NEW ENGLAND STYLE..............ZILCH/NADA/NICHTS!!!!!- BUT WE HAD FUN.
HOPE THE GUYS AT ORVIS AND ABEL HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR!
