Salmonflies Prefer Partagas

Did some fishing during the Salmonfly hatch on a special stretch of a special river. These bugs get big (up to 3 inches long) and the trout go crazy for them. This one decided he really liked my Oris and then he decided he liked my original PSD3 EL even more. Until it melted one of his tentacles off.

The cigar was better than the fishing. And the fishing was quite good.

All fly fishing. Big furry dry flies on size 4 hooks.

And the Oris really is a great watch Rob. Many thanks go to Lisa for her diligence in procuring it for me!

Chile? Man that sounds wicked. Wouldn't you rather be chasing permit though!?!? Seriously, we'll meet in the salt sometime soon. I'll show Ken how it's done.

Speaking of fly fishing in Chile, cigars and bugs. While fishing in the place of the picture smoking cigars, every afternoon emperor moth were atracted by the smoke of my cigars. It was amazing, but the cigar was somehow very appealing to them... and they were not really peaky on any special brand.
