ReplyDeletenice! reminds me of a kaufmanns stone
ReplyDeleteThanks
ReplyDeleteThis one is easier to make than kaufmanns lol
nice fly, love those krystal flash legs.
ReplyDeleteI saw 5-6 14 to 16 inch trout in Oatka creek (9/17/11). Tried my best and caught 4 ea. 10 to 12 inch trout . the big ones were spooked by my fly line. I was using a #16 PT. What do the big ones eat in the fall? the h2o was 53 degrees, gin clear and low.
ReplyDeletelow clear water levels mean very spooky fish, i would get on the water at or before first light and try streamers first then nymph.
