WNY Fly Fishing Stream Report 10/19/2023

 I took Dave down to the rez to show him the water for his first outing there, the weather was perfect and the water had just a little color to it. the amount of guys out on a weekday was crazy!!!!! but with very nice weather comes the crowds. all we did was swing buggers in assorted colors but as always olive was the ticket with just a hint of copper flash. I ran into Brian very old friend on the water and got him catching a fish swinging a small minnow pattern.

 The rains are here and helping out the fish, but we are still in a drought pattern. i found dead trout in a secluded spot which means the fish are getting stressed, so please go after the warm water guys now and leave the trout alone for awhile. Now caddis are the main hatch i have been seeing along with sulphers and brown drakes, so if you go out go out very early and stop around 10 and forget the late afternoons unless you have shaded spots for most of the day

 The rains came and we needed it, but the small erie tribs are coming down fast and the catt is at 391 and dirty, it will push more fish into the smaller ones and spread them out

 Jeff went today and here is the report, he went to the forks at 18 mile in hamburg. He said the water was in good shape and nice flow, went fished to the falls and back with not a fish nor did anyone else. A guy he ran into said basswood was fishing very well this morning with lots of fish hooked and landed

I went out with two of the finest people you will ever meet!!! Mike and Jeff have been long time friends and fishing buddies and went out to do some trout fishing. Well the water and the trout were very good, but the laughs were even better. I snapped the pics and these guys caught some very nice trout on caddis dries, buggers, wets and nymphs

The cold weather has put a damper on the early morning fishing and bugs, but the warmer afternoons have made up for it. the streams are in prime conditions and the fish are eager to look up or take swung flies. The weather for the weekend doesn't look all that good so pick and choose wisely.

Jeff and a buddy went out today for some much needed time away from house arrest, so here is what they gave me, they fished 18 mile creek in hamburg this afternoon, the water was just about perfect color and flow, there was two million guys out on every square inch of water he said. They got fish on olive buggers, white lighting, egg patterns and trout beads. The fish were caught swinging, dead drifting streamers and egging it up, he also said the suckers were taking streamers on the swing.

I don't have a lot to report with the deep freeze we are in now and with opening week of deer season, but the thaw is coming and this should bring the fishing back to normal.

Jeff and Dale met me at my place for some dry fly action and for me to get some pics, the bugs were  coming nicely and Friday night they did very well at a old spot they haven't fished at in years, the next morning to was a spot that hasn't produced very well over the years, but this year it has good numbers of fish, nothing big but fun and a couple of wild browns in the mix. They were fishing caddis and cahills sizes 14 and 16 on 5X. We caught some bait fishermen in the no kill sections using a center pin outfit and you can see one of the hooks that broke off in the rainbows mouth.

These streams are easy access and have a lot of fish in them for all styles of fly fishing from stocked to natural reproduction. Just toggle the boxes for what type of fishing you prefer and it will tell you where to go, I wish NY had stuff like this, PA is why ahead of this state.

The fishing has been very good from the reports I have been getting lately from everyone, lots of people and warm temps have the streams getting pounded. If you get away from people and move very carefully along the water and you can pick up fish, low clear water is a perfect time to use trout beads in more subtle colors.

Jeff, Paul and a buddy went out today and sent me this to pass along. The Oak was low and very clear, other LO tribs they went by were the same, the creek they fished had fish in the deep holes only and took everything on the swing on my special bugger pattern I came up with. Thanks Guys, you owe me big time.

 The erie tribs are high as of now and will prob stay that way for the weekend because of all the snow and warm temps on the way, the LO tribs are high also, so we may be screwed for the weekend, so what the gauges and chose wisely.
