Do Easter Bunnies Lay Eggs?

Met my neighbors little girl up by the railroad tracks this morning where she was looking for easter eggs. Later in the day I found three goose eggs out on an island in the Neversink that had already hatched. If you could find the goose eggs early enough, just one would do fine for an order of scrambled eggs or even an omelet for that matter, and the egg shortage problem would be solved.

Headed down to Callicoon about 1:30 with the intention of seeing if the Hendricksons were hatching there. The bridge over the river is under repair and there is no access to the water upstream from the bridge. Even if there was, I would have taken a pass, as the wind was blowing white caps straight up the river.

Asked the nice lady on Waze to show me the way to Bridgeville from Callicoon and she did, (on roads I'd never seen before). Pulled into a riverside parking spot as another angler was taking off his gear. He said there were some Hendricksons yesterday and a few so far today but he had to get home. I put on three shirts and the rest of my gear and headed downstream. Saw bugs from the get go, not a lot, but there were enough to get a few fish up. There were two problems, one, there weren't enough bugs to get the fishing rising steadily, and second, with a twenty plus mile an hour wind you couldn't get a drag free fly to the fish if you did see one.

The fishing - Far better than the last two days. Started out 0 for 4 with two refusals and two lost fish. In less than two hours I hooked eight and landed six with the number of refusals about equal to the number of takes. The fish I caught were all between 13 and 18 inches, making it my best day so far this year. 

The ride home - Was unremarkable except for the fact that between four and five in the afternoon I drove by the Willow, the BK, the EB, and the WB, and saw not one boat and but two anglers, (both standing in the water in front of the West Branch Angler's cabins. Apparently everyone else was still looking for easter eggs.
