TRIP SUMMARY

If we did half numbers, I’d give it a 3.5/5. The fishing wasn’t great by any means but it wasn’t bad either. They made us work a little harder than usual for them but we still managed to find a few good ones! Leeches in olive were definitely the top producer. Fish were taking them in the middle of a drift but also on the swing! Just when you think your drift is done and you’re getting ready to recast, don’t be afraid to let your flies hang and give them a twitch or two. We also took fish on Foam Back Emergers (Chocolate Thunder-20) as well as Pheasant Tails (Mercury Bead-20). Don’t overlook the shallows— if there appears to be enough water to hold a trout or two, there’s a good chance one is hiding there!
