CD, I had a fish take me into my backing. MY BACKING. I haven't seen my backing since I put it on in 1985. I must have hooked a bear that was swimming in search of fish.

Any jig fish?
Hatchery dust was applied on all my PowerBait™ flies. They were focusing on the chartreuse, although the orange salmon flavored with glitter was also getting looks. The trick is to enlarge your PowerBait™ ball if you keep getting refusals. No trout can resist a golf ball chunk size of PB. If they do, go up to a baseball size chunk. And, in Yellowstone, the trout are huge so you may need to increase the size of your PowerBait™ ball to something resembling a softball. The softball hatch was full on, and you needed to match the hatch.

There were no jig fish, because I forgot to bring my specialized and customized Phenix 9' jig rod with me. The Pro Staff will be disappointed and I might lose sponsorship.
