I had a couple of days off the oars this weekend, and since there's not too much fishing other than the South Fork just yet, Rachael, Charlotte and I decided to go car camping. We had a great time up on Pacific Creek in the Bridger-Teton National Forest with some friends. The temps are getting even warmer, which should speed up the runoff a little more and maybe get some bugs movin'. I'm booked all week on the South Fork, so stay tuned for some detailed reports...hopefully the salmonflies are starting to stir! I just got an email from long-lost friend Gary Wilmott, aka "The Wedge". For those who do not know him, he's one of the greatest guides that the Snake, Green and New Fork Rivers has ever seen...no joke. He hung up his trout gear a number of years ago for Pacific Sailfish, Marlin, Tuna, Roosters and just about anything else that will eat a fly in blue water. He now resides in Costa Rica, and takes people fishing there, as well as Panama and Guatemala. He's a legend... it was great to hear from him tonight. Here's a photo of a typical Costa Rican sunset.
