Fishing is Great

A friend of mine took us to a river in Lowell called the Flat River. We had the best time of our lives fly-fishing for small mouth bass. I couldn't tell you how to get there, but its in Lowell. You find thsi covered bridge thats over a hundre thirty years old. Get in teh water and hike up 2 miles. Bring a small popper on a fly rod. stand in th emiddle of the river and cast to teh side and let the current pull the popper in as you jerk it occassionally to pop it. then real it in real slowly. by the way, there's a real famous fly-fishing guide named Glen Blackwell (sp?) who owns a shop in Rockford (12 mile and rt-131?). You can ask him for advice on flies and locations but you'll have to buy 15 bucks of flies to make up for it. Anyway, the flat river rocks, is filled with fish, and you should go between 5 and 10. PM.
