Kinni Hookers Sept. 10th, 2009

Posted: under Fly Fishing, Kayak the Kinni ~ Floating the Kinni ~ Paddle the Kinni ~ Kayaking the Kinni~Kinni Dipping ©, Kinni Hookers.

: Guiding in Montana

: Carrie Jacobson Salt River, AZ

: Lisa tying knots

The hookers gathered last night and had a great time. Lisa played with learning knots, Twink fly selection, and we all learned how to cast in the dark! Twink also had a lesson in falling in the river with her waders on. This gave us a whole new perspective on floating the Kinni! A good lesson learned with a campfire just steps away!

From Carrie: I have not made a meeting yet, but I do plan on coming tonight or next thursday… work is kicking my butt. However, I do have photos from fishing with my dad in AZ in March on the Salt River. Thanks Carrie Jacobson

From Sheila:
paige,
This hooker is still in Montana guiding. Have managed two days off in the past month. One day I checked out a high mountain lake in a kick boat for some brookies.
Today I went on a fishing excursion to fish the north fork of the blackfoot. River Runs Through it!
Hike in at least a mile, lots of boulder hopping. This is bull trout land; didn’t fish for those of course as it’s a big no no but i did see some in the river. at least 30″ fish, spawning i believe. fishing was really hard, no significant hatches to speak of and hit and miss on strikes. I was not able to land any of the 5 that hit my fly. I think they were bulls so probably a good thing.

Guided a client into a 20″ rainbow three days ago.
Getting proficient at rowing drift boats.
Gave some casting lessons to some novices from Spokane.
Got down in the 30s last couple of night, colors starting to change.
Fishing on the Clark Fork has been excellent; all big fish coming out the past 2 weeks, all on dries! what a great time of year when you can get big trout to come to the surface. Big PMD’s, very small adams. Starting to see some mahogany dunns.
have fun guys!
