Dry fly action this wekend

Paul and i went out to do some fishing on top and relax. Friday night was fantastic with a great hatch and lots of hungry trout and good company. I hooked a very large trout and he broke off, Paul landed some very vice 14"-16" browns all on dries. We started the next morning off with a bang, we locked the keys in the car when the door swung closed and i had to break the side window to get in. After that we went fishing for that big fish that broke me off the night before, well to our dismay a necro monger stepped in and proceeded to drown bait right where the big boy was the night before. We looked at his side and he had fish on a stringer, so we knew what he was going to do right away. We caught some fish then it happened; he hooked the one we where after and put that beautiful 20+ brown on his stringer and left. What a waste of such a great fish to be killed and not enjoyed over and over again

The water is getting skinny for this time of the year, but is still on the cooler side. March browns and grey fox are up next with some sulphers mixed in, caddis will still be around in good numbers. Don't forget to use rusty spinners at dark for the spinner fall. So get out and enjoy the madness at dark with the rest of us.

We had a couples weekend, the weather was the same as Thursday a mixed bag. BWO and caddis came off early and as the day wore on we started to see march browns and Brian saw drakes. Everyone hooked alot fish and landed quite a few, and as usual Brain is the master of the grill with his chicken and Roses desert, we ate like kings and had to loosen the wader belts for the afternoon fishing.

Bill came out with us Thursday and did a little fishing. The weather was lousy heavy rain then clear skies then it would start all over again, but we pressed on and caught alot of fish and also found a baby fawn sitting in the tall grass.

The dry fly action from this past weekend was very good and alot of fun, shooting line out and dropping dries to hungry trout.

Alan and Chuck Baldo came down and did some fishing with us this sat. The rains came during the night and colored up the water a little more than we liked but we fished on. The fish were a little off but still active and eager to take our offerings of nymphs and dry's. Alan & Chuck had a couple of really nice fish on nymph's and lots of dry action in the late afternoon. These guys are some of the nicest and down to earth people you could ever meet. We had a blast fishing and just talking about the world.
