Went to WM fished from 1100am to 430pm and did not get a bite. It was a slow day for all I did not see to many people with fish.

Arrived at the lake around 4:30 p.m. and found the wind was still blowing about 15-20 MPH, so dry flies were out. A fast sinking weighted line coupled with dark Woolies was enough to entice a dozen t...
