Fished and hiked for 6hrs today, saw a lot of water. Missed a few, caught a few too. No midges, was alittle disappointed about that but they will come soon enough. The Big EZ worked very well today on the bigger water, it was readily eaten on the down and …
I’ll be up by 7am to get a jump on the coffee before hitting the road. Thought I’d throw the Big EZ at you before you hear about how it performs. The name is fitting, the fly is big at a #2 Scud hook and it’s easy to tie with …
In the past I’ve kept this site free of opinions, not sure if that’s a good thing, if it’s the right thing. Fished the other day and took note of multiple beavers, noted their impact on certain stretches of stream. Called a fella I know and was told that the …
1-3:30pm Target location changed last minute due to lack of time. Airtemp 27-29 Range with minimal wind. Overcast, no sun whatsoever. Fished a new protype fly, loved it could use some weighting adjustments. Fish crushed streamers today, not a single fish above 15inches though. No Midge seen, none on the banks …
Just prior to my wedding Sept. 6, 2014 I packed all my materials and bench up so that our house would be ready for additional guests. Over a year later with a newly re-finished bedroom and I finally have a place for my bench again. It took a couple days …
28ºF didn’t feel like 28ºF. Heavy overcast, lack of time dictated the creek. Wind in the face, at times howling. Just popped a handful of brown trout so the next couple days could see me inside tying flies with my trout itch fully scratched. Take advantage of the time you …
Fished from 12:30-3pm Midge were in the air & on the banks on arrival. Air temp: 33-34 on arrival. Overcast w/ rain & sleet. No wind. Streamer water, snaggy & untouched. Landed a few Browns. New water today.
Meine was testing out the camera on his phone and took this slow motion shot of me releasing a brown trout. Often this exchange between myself and the trout is the most satisfying. Just being able to marvel at the fish that is held in the palm of my hands before …
Fished from 10-2:30. Browns and brookies on a super small super spooky creek. Difficult rating was high, tight casting lanes cost me a few fish but this was honestly one of the best days I’ve ever had on a creek. I sat in the snow and dead drifted a …
Back at it on the 2nd. Great day with excellent conditions. No rising trout, nymphs and streamers made the day. Took a friend out who is still learning the ropes, he had a good time. The sun was out, fish were active and the wind was low. Day number two …
