misfish Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) At the creek by 6am. Plan was to walk about 4 km down. Boy has the forest growth gotten big in a short time. It was a bit of a trek, I have to say. I managed two small smolts. One a brown,the other a rainbow. I didnt bother with pics of them.Thought I would share some of the spots I fished. Missed a nice fish at this spot. Got my first one here today. Picked the brown out of here. Nice spot that didnt hand over a fish. This I thought was a nice pic.Spring feed feeder. Lost 3 flies today.Darn those over hanging branches. Still nice to be getting out Time for a snack and rest.Yep,slice of cold pizza and a drink. Thought a fishless post,was needed.LOL Edited June 3, 2012 by Misfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Looks like some gorgeous water man!! Go back in the evenings if you want topwater dry action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 That is some sweet looking water Brian. While I grew up on fly fishing and love it some of those spots would be best attacked with a hair jig on a short spinning rod. Thanks for the pictures.

Absolutely, let's wait for a sunny say.. We should definitely have some bugs hatching later in the afternoon if that's the case.

Musky or Specks Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 You keep fishing water/cover like that your going to become a very technically sound caster in a short time. Or keep commercial tyers very busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirogak Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 You're hooked on the fly, my friend. Good for you. Fly fishing is probably the only type of fishing where despite not having caught anything or having caught little ones, you can still come out satisfied from the trip. Good point Brad made, your casting skills will only refine. I was deterred by the heavy rainfall the past few days and didn't hit any streams this weekend. i will catch up soon.

mbac31 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Youve come a long way Mr Brian. At least your not seein visions in roots anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJL Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Just incredible looking water Brian. Great pics It's been a while since I last broke out the fly rod for trout...Hopefully next weekend the fish will be rising for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cudz Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Looks nice. Looks familiar but I may be wrong. If it is the same creek I am thinking (I used to fish it more as a kid), there are decent browns but man are they skiddish (sp?). You have got make 0 noise and cast from a distance.

John Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 That is some sweet looking water Brian. While I grew up on fly fishing and love it some of those spots would be best attacked with a hair jig on a short spinning rod. Thanks for the pictures. You guys are starting to make me feel nostalgic.......Used to fish dozens of spots like that in my teens with an UL 5' rod a 2 1/2" fly reel loaded with 2# line and a size 16 eyeless hook and a tiny redworm.

fish_finder Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Lookin like some real nice water! One thing I'd recommend.... If you plan on continuing with the bushwhacking, get yourself a thermacell and strap it to your belt or backpack. You won't see any bugs for miles doing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
