Fishing Report
How’s Fishing?
We have had a good week of fishing and beautiful weather to go along with it. The stream is looking very clear and you can see the trout. I had a couple of good mornings this week throwing dry flies. I had the most success on a parachute Adams and renegade. The gold flash mini jigs were very popular this week. They were being used with an indicator suspended around 3 feet. Jimi Hendrix glo balls were also working well. Several customers were reporting that bright colored Rooster Tails and silver Super Duper's were working great in zone 2. Saturday is veterans free fishing day so we hope to see a nice crowd this weekend. Have fun, be safe and we will see you on the stream!
