New Guy
Thought is was about time I introduced myself, I have been crusing this sight for about six years. I feel bad, I get alot of great info from this sight and really enjoy it. Any way I thought I would start here because fly fishing is my true love, something my father passed down to me. Passing on father to son to son. My favorite memory was about five years ago when me and my son drove to the metolius for the day. It was November, snowed over the pass, cold, and our first trip with his new fly rod(4wt. from cabals) NO fish caught, but it has become a regular for us and one of my greatest memories. Thanks for all the great info, I will be sharing mine too.

Re: New Guy
Welcome to the fly board.
The Metolius always fishes hard, but that makes every trout you catch a memorable experience.

Re: New Guy
Welcome Kootenay! The only trout I caught on the Metolius were platers!
