You guys are right, there's a great deal of satisfaction in catching one on something you tied.

To help these ole eyes with the tying, I have ordered a magnification visor; Baush & Lomb.
Good for you Boone...I had figured most creeks would be a wash-out, glad you found some fishable water. I'm just hanging on for dryer weather...and lower creeks....come on baby!!!
