Title: Cariboo, August 24th - 28th 2012
Post by: fishingbuddha on August 28, 2012, 09:32:03 PM

Just got back from an epic five day fishing trip floating down a river 30 kms each day.
Hundreds of rainbows caught. Many over 20 inches mostly caught on dry hopper patterns.
Some caught on pink and purples leeches.
Great trip.

Now THAT's a fishing trip! (insert cow-tow icon here).
Pray tell, those California Blondes in your flybox, are they tied by yourself or tackle-store bought?

If the latter, please name the store.
If the former, could you tie a few for me? I will gladly pay market price for them. They look deadly! :)

Congrats on a fantastic trip and thanks for sharing.

Flies were tied and some bought at different stores around the lower mainland.
