Got a job at a shop up in the mountains (finally out of the flatland!), so I headed up yesterday to get the work schedule situated and do some fishing. Fish were popping little black stones and midges in the calmer water. But anyone that knows this stretch of water can tell you that the pools were full of stationary anglers who fish the same hole for 7hrs a day. Tied on a black stone nymph and a new midge pattern to test and went to town in the riffle sections.

2nd cast

proceeded to nail a couple fish in that range as well as some respectable 12 inch browns

Moved down to an undercut bank along a swift riffle and stung this guy in the lip with the new midge

Ended the day on a high note with the rainbow who also came on the midge

However, the fish of the day gos to my buddy witha bugger eatin brown

too bad I can’t get the team members to take an hour drive south to fish where the real fish are!
