Good Times

Here we are in a weird scenario full of fear and WTFs. Things haven’t gotten much better in the world other than the fishing. Let me just say thanks to everyone who has reached out and shown support for my family and I. Starting this guide service was a great idea 2 months ago, but shit happens, and we are still here. I know we’re going through the same things like everyone else out here in the World of Covid-19. The fishing on the other hand has been lights out! Bugs are everywhere, above and below the surface (SO ARE THE PEOPLE). When fishing for the wild ones it’s key to have all the bugs in your box due to the crazy timing of hatches. The hatches have been amazing so far, and are getting better by the day. We’ve had some special days on the water with all this time off. Sulphers and Yellow Sallies are on the menu, but we’ve also been seeing Cahills, Giant Stones, and Hendricksons are still hanging around. Nymphing has been amazing as well as the streamer fishing. Some large trout (wild) have hit the net over the past month, so that’s always a plus. This is one of the best years of fishing I have seen, even with all the people out and about. We are still practicing social distancing here at HEFF. Trust me when I say we are ready to be guiding again, but right now is not the time. What people should really do is support all local fly shops and restaurants. We hear everyone say this, but we need to do instead of agree. We like to cook dinner every night for the most part, but we are spending money we don’t have to support local shops and businesses. Karma is a real thing, doing the right thing right now will eventually pay off. Fishing is one of the only things one can do at the moment to remain calm and enjoy these “Good Times.” Get out there, and get after it. We will see you all again soon.
