    Slickrock can be a dangerous ford at times. In my BMT Guidebook I suggest people hiking through during rainy weather carry enough extra food in case they get stuck there waiting for the water to ebb.
    NO SNIVELING!

    It can be pretty deep, but honestly, Slickrock did not get its name at random. Even when it's not deep you can bust your behind.

    Still, if Slickrock drains half as fast as Citico, it won't be much of a wait. Then again, Citico is much steeper.

    Looks like we'll get a few boomers this weekend.
    The clouds and cooler water should make the brown trout more active.
    Looks like Mediceman and I will need to get down into the lower section early enough not to get caught on the ridge when they do kick in.

    First time with the Tenkara

    Practice session but what is it?
    Spent 5 minutes on the dock then got in the water....5 minutes to learn where to put the lure...worked the dock for nothing, then aimed at the rhododendron casting a shadow on the edge of he lake. I bet a mountainous stream is much harder but on ripshin lake it is too easy but I don't know what kind of fish it is ?????

    Your official tenkara certificate is in the mail.
    I caught more trees with my 12' tenkara over by Tremont. It'll be fun Saturday!

    Way to go on your bluegill! You can have endless fun casting Sneaky Petes to bluegill. They will absolutely nail them. What fly were you using, Medicineman?
