Alpha Male, Shit Spey Casts, Broken Butt And Two Flats 08Mar21

I hit the PT again today with intentions of fishing with flies (OK, the Awesome Midge) in the AM and then learning the spey cast with the Rodfather THMS in the field in the PM. On the 1st count, well done - I caught a number of fish on midges, mainly the Awesome, but the vinyl in grey too, on an overcast AM out of Nature Center. I did have a big fish day by landing a 20" alpha male from one of the of holes I could fish (due to crowdation). Awesome catch as I downsized to the Rodfather Cutthroat 9' 4wt. The SA Anadaro head flew through the guides and retrieve on the Redington Rise was smooth like butter. I'lll show just the a couple but a decent morning... messed up some of the pics, that's why there aren't more big broadsides

Unfortunately the PM session of spey casting was cut very short when my THMS butt end broke in two. I didn't secure the added on butt piece with a center dowel, so it snapped off in my hand. No problem... already fixed. To cap the afternoon though, when I returned to the house I was in the middle of having two flats on the Crusher. I was able to get to Discount Tire before closing and they fixed one and ordered a new one for the other. Right now I am spareless. Sheesh, I must've hit a nail perfectly to flatten two tires.
