Laird's/Day Plaid

I was thinking the very same thing! Forgive my ignorance, but is there good fishing in that part of the world?

I live in an area that is graced with three of the best trout fishing rivers/streams in the country, (The Roaring Fork, Colorado, and the Frying Pan) Gold Medal streams all. We've got Brown, Rainbow, Cutthroat, and in some places a hybrid called a Cut-bow. However, I'd love to come to your neck of the woods to wet my line. We would make a formidable team, raising the cry "Fish on" while kilted.
Puffer's area has some spectacular water also and would love to go there too. Maybe during the summer. When school lets out in June I am a free-lance fly fishing guide out here and I'll toss an invitation out your way Jock. Any time you want to tangle with the native trout let me know and I'll take you to some of the better spots on our rivers.

McNulty.

Thank you so much for your kind invitation and you never know I may take you up on that.Likewise if ever you are this way of the world, perhaps we could arrange something? How do you get on with a 15ft fly rod?I would not recommend fishing here in the kilt, the midgies would eat you alive! Great pictures by the way, my casting wrist was beginning to twitch!

I may try something like this again if my Inverness Cape was missing and all I had was a tartan blanket.

I sometimes combine my cape, as tradition, with a tweed day plaid (neither worsted tartan nor pleats but stout, lanolin "oily" heavyweight tweed). I reserve my worsted tartan full and half belted plaids for "special occasions". Since I have a 150cm square of Noble spun wool government 1A (as was) looking for a use I might one day fashion it into a heavier and more functional "fly plaid" for something in-between.
