On Saturday, I had a little extra time to fill while my son was at a birthday party. So I did some chores around the house. Well, that’s what my wife would have preferred. As you probably guessed, I went fishing.
I decided to run over to Reimers Ranch to check out the Pedernales River. We’ve received a fair amount of rain in Central Texas over the last few months so I was really hoping that conditions would improve from my last visit. Take a look at the pictures in previous posts… the river was almost dry.
Although I didn’t get a fish to even wink at my flies, I enjoyed getting out on the water and casting some flies I tied a few months back. Here are some pictures which illustrate the change in the river. Dramatic…

I have never done chores as fast as when I knew I could go fishing when I was done. The wife know something is up when I wake at 6:00 to clean the kitchen and fix that busted light switch.
If my wife hears my alarm go off on a weekend, she knows I'm going fishing. It's a great motivator!
