Fly Fishing For Wipers : Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

As we headed to the creek to day, with visions of fish dancing in our heads, JH foreshadowed the early morning escapade. According to JH, the old guys say this spawn “runs from full moon – to full moon”. Last night was a full moon and it had been running for awhile. Well, they are gone – the Wipers have abandoned the creek and it’s all over for this creek this year.

We hit every hole and new ones, with no sign of anything. Sure we caught a few Sand Bass, but we have been forever ruined by the Wiper Run. Now, we are looking for the “next big thrill”, something just as possessed with a fighting passion as the Wipers are – uh, were.

The video is done though, and I can’t believe how large these things are compared to my typical flypodcast slideshows. If anyone knows how to get these things compressed and still hold onto a glimmer of quality, please let us know.
