We fished a stretch that isnt often overly productive but it always has potential. today was one of its better days as we hit solid fish all throughout the stretch. nothing big but most everything was solid in size. the weather was great and with the warmer temps the fish were on the prowl
went out in the morning for a couple of hours. the fishing was slow overall but i found 3 holes/runs that i got into some fish in.
Me and matt went out on a saturday instead of sunday and on a warm day. we need some good snow to get rid of some of these people off the rivers and on the slopes. we fished 2 stretches. the 1st one fished much better then normal but it didnt take long before we ran into people above us. we walked out and went lower where the water did seem a little more staind due to the rains, which we felt was borderline clarity for streamers. we moved a couple fish but that was it.
So far the post spawn fishing has been pretty slow but we have been seeing/moving some big fish, just havent landed any of them. fish are slowing moving about, the warm weather im sure has been helpful. now the cold weather is setting in so we'll see how the fishing is affected
December is always tough on the local rivers cause the browns are recovering from the spawn so they arent quite a frisky as other times of the year. anyway we moved a few including a couple of good fish but only managed to land a few smaller ones. it was still a good time
With the spawn finally over i have ventured out a few times to see if i could find some interested fish. its been kind of shitty but have moved a few. the weather has been really warm, mid 50s for a couple weeks now. matt caught this fish this past wknd.
Never been a big fan of the big water but was curious to see how it would fish. went up there to get away from spawning browns so we went to target rainbows and cutts. as it turns out we did get into a few fish but most of them were whities. it was a nymphing game but i did switch to some emergers for some risers that i was seeing, did the best with what i had and it did not produce. switched to a streamer for a while but no bueno there either. it was a very unentertaining long day. . the weather cooperated so that was a plus
