Notes

I initially tried casting out to the middle of the pond, letting my flies sink, and slowly retrieving them. I had no success doing that, so I tried flipping the flies closer to shore and using a quicker retrieve. I caught 2 little rainbows, missed one or two, and missed a bluegill or two. Not too bad. Despite the light rain, I saw probably 10 rises while I was there.
