		<description><![CDATA[These are the known facts. The stream holds trout and fishermen sometimes fish for them and sometimes they bite. &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; There is much conjecture about every other circumstance. The trout have not been here since the beginning of time; the stream wasn&#8217;t even here until the Wisconsin Glacial Episode. In the next epoch the rocks and till will  be worn into fine powder or trapped and redistributed in retreat. The path to the edge of the bank was muddy from the recent rain and when I stepped onto the rocks in the stream bed mud swirled around my boots. There are other things I could have been doing but freedom of choice extends only so far into the continuum&#8211;80 years&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6624&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

No perch is safe, even amongst its own kind.

		<description><![CDATA[Hank iii wrote about being tattooed and branded. The smallmouth bass has its own kind of markings. If the aggressive take didn&#8217;t tell you, or immediate rise to the surface with a succession of jumps followed by the rod doubling over on a thrash to the bottom, the look on its face after landing should clue you in. It&#8217;s saying, you and me are never going to be friends.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6599&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The water temperature held fast at 44 degrees but the air temperature dropped precipitously below that. The wind brought snow flurries into the occasion. Spending 12 formative years in Florida tends to diminish appreciation for that sort of clime. Matt Smythe is a Western New Yorker with steelhead tendencies and one day to get it done. Cold could not be an impediment. Things got worse before they got better but by that time the only trace left of Matt was a half-empty bottle of Maker&#8217;s Mark. It got better Matt. &#160;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6591&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The fish should have been in shallow but they weren&#8217;t. I asked the old European man with the carp bells on his rod tips about the situation. &#8220;The stocking trucks came this week,&#8221; he said. The carp wanted nothing to do with this. The lake has several access points along the shore where the growth has been cleared or the hiking path bends close to the water. Fishermen had stationed themselves shoulder to shoulder bombing fluttering spoons out beyond the drop-off. A few placed plastic buckets behind them in the dirt. One walked by and held up a stringer dangling three perfectly proportioned 12-inch rainbow trout. &#8220;I caught 70,&#8221; he said with a wink. Three is what you can keep. I&#8217;ll chop ya up&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6501&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I believe in the clear. I&#8217;ve been intrigued by Monic fly lines since first reading about the clear, monofilament-cored floating lines on Midcurrent. An article there by Paul Bruun outlays its history. It&#8217;s been around since 1993, so I&#8217;m a little late to the game, but for the most part it seems to have a fanbase among anglers with a specific skill set&#8211;those casting to bonefish, tarpon and permit. I decided to give it a go, opting for the All Weather Clear Floating Line in a 6 weight. I&#8217;ve fished it five days so far this year&#8211;all in warm water Florida lakes with large littoral zones, shallow bowl canals or box cut canals with extremely clear water. In all cases it&#8217;s stillwater or with&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6467&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I don&#8217;t know if it was the change in fly or the time of day but a flip switched and the hits finally started coming. Weird things start happening when you stick your point and shoot underwater and there&#8217;s not much light.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6459&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
