A bright object has suddenly appeared in the sky, everything is bright
again and I can once again see my shadow...........finally, after 7
continuous days of rain.

Looks like I can stop working on the Ark. ;-)

BTW: My sympathies to those in New England who have suffered some
serious damage from the rain. I hear things are starting to finally
clear up there also.




I spoke too soon.........

Severe thunderstorm warnings......thunder and lightening as I post
this............

Had to go to Sacramento today to pick up new furniture for the wife. As a
beautiful 91 degrees. Would have liked to taken the boat and did some shad
fishing on the way back.

Nope, just love to shad fish. Normally use Grass and Ghost Shrimp for
Sturgeon here in SF Bay area. Use an 8wt with Bill Adelman tied shad flies.
The 8 wt because the local stripers have a habit of hitting the same flies
at times.

American shad? Great fish on light tackle. Although I've never had much
luck with a fly, I could imagine they would be a handful. In the
Delaware, they are running pretty good right now.

Easy to fish a fly. No real casting involved. Since you use a shooting
head to a mono running line (I use Amnesia), you need the fly down on the
bottom. Flip the line out a ways and work it out along the seam.

Thanks for the advice. I might just be able to get out this weekend. If
I do, I'll give it a go.
