Relaxing trip to local pond nets amusing surprise...

On lazy days I frequent a local put and take pond, however I never take. Just a little casting practice and fly experimenting. Got out for an hour or two this past Friday as a storm was moving in. The fishers already there said it was very slow, but I had to try. I threw out the old indicator and Chironomid twins at about 6' deep. Missed a bunch but landed a few. Here is a nice couple of bows:






Then something amusing happened. I went to roll cast, but the line would not come out of the water. I thought maybe I had gotten fouled up on some weeds or something so I stripped the line back in to clean the hooks (I was fishing two different Chironomids at about 3' and 6' ) Looked down and no weeds, but these two little guys:



Notice the different colored flies:















Overall I had a very relaxing time fishing with an amusing surprise at the end!!!!
