After a long day at work, I really wanted to decompress. What a better way than to watch a dry fly float on the clear waters of the SBR..So I tied on a comparadun and enjoyed watching my imitation float thru the pockets and pool...I worked my way around the bend and came to a fast riff, that was exploding with Quill Gordon Spinners. The bugs were loaded with an orange egg sack..I left on my Hendrickson Comparadun and fished it into the riff and immediately was into fish..The fishing was fast and the spinner fall was thick..I love fish that cooperate and eat my drys...I worked my way to the pool and was hoping to see some larger fish and sure enough he was on the far side rising just above a large rock. I waded in position and laid the fly about 4 feet above the fish..Perfect..The fly was drifting to my fish, and had closed the distance to 2 feet when along came the spoiler...The little redbellie grabbed my fly and made 2 acrobatic leaps basically shutting down my chances at Mr. Brown....The spinner fall stopped and the river faded to black.....
