parker,

It's ALWAYS about the timing. The key is to figure out when the conditions will be right for "the" day. I've got the rivers I fish regularly pretty dialed in, but I haven't fished the Wind enough to know when they'll be where in the system.

I'm sure 'fly has it all dialed in though, so my advice to you is this: Next time Joe says he's going and the fishing should be hot, call in sick, hell, call in dead just get there. You won't be regretting not being at work when you're on your way home from a hot day of springer fishing. I promise
