Haven't heard from ZF, it's not Quail that he refers to. You know he'll have some sort of report on those new brown chronies.
I do know the crew, but only after spending a "few" $'s in the shop floatant & fluorocarbon, I've never floated with them - or anyone on the Yak. I tend to like to fish / wade from shore, although I'm not as stable (or is it stupid) as I used to be so I tend to wait until the level drops. I also generally fish the Highweay 10 sections, although the canyon below Ringers should be very fishable early this year due the lack of rain / snow.
Where'd you end up fishing this weekend? I hit Black Lake.
