Hey JEB,

It's great to hear someone mention the Clearwater again, spectacular country, big fish, your a lucky man!! Went to school in Moscow during the late 80's so was fortunate to be able to spend some Clearwater time. You know I used to do very well with the white jig (deer hair) and bobber combo, never did get anywhere near a 20 pounder tho, 16 was about the best. I am surprised to hear you say that 20's are not a bit more common in that country, perhaps many of the stories I heard were just that. Take Care.
