Small Stream Fly Fishing ON FIRE (5-14-2008)



After making a few trips the past couple of weeks with less than optimum weather conditions, I hit the streams today with partly sunny skies and no wind. The water temps were in the high 50's and the fishing was tremendous. The final body count was 27 for 2.5 hours of fishing. Most were in the 3-6 inch range with a couple topping 8". I also broke a larger fish (12"... okay maybe 10") off when I set the hook a little too aggressively. This stream was a local wild trout stream that had suffered badly in last years drought. Great to see a few larger fish still out there.
