Got out one last time Saturday late afternoon. Got onto the water on the Fall River about 3:30 and had about 2 1/2 hours to fish before having to get back for dinner plans. Found a nice run holding fish with a few risers. Threw a bunch of stuff at them with no obvious hatch on. Finally started picking up a few fish on terrestrials. Cinnamon ants, beetles and brown hoppers. There was one big fish in the pool, and I tempted him to the hopper on the first drift, and he did what big fish are trained to do....dash for the first log and he broke me off before I even caught my breath. Kept working the hopper downstream and took a number more to about 17". Nice afternoon and preview of future trips to our new home. Took the drive back to California Sunday, and back to work today. Bummer!
