CZ: I'll look into that, but....I'm a working stiff again these days. I don't have all the time needed to randomly prospect like I used to. I also tend to like bigger water and...they're not making anymore of that. That trip down to New Mexico last week was double-duty (I attended a celebration of life in Durango) to help justify the 8- hour drive. The cost of fishing trips has risen precipitously, as one would expect these days. $100 per man per night rooms and $35 meals out are now the average, at least here. I can do that a little cheaper (I suppose), but...the cost/benefit basis for all that is getting much tougher to justify for just a few dinky fish. Big trout are much more fun, and even the chance of hooking one is always pleasant to contemplate. Small fish don't entirely justify all of the now-added expenses to get there.
