Greg Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Snuck off early today from work and fished at Bennett this afternoon. Had a great time. I was worried from all the spring reports of less fish and smaller fish but I sure didn't notice that. Lots of fish and quite a few decent fish in the 15" to 16" range. Got a pic of one nice rainbow I'll post later. Stream is up and flowing fairly fast. Somewhat off color. Used a double tungsten weighted nymph rig to get down to them. Not too many people out. Overall an outstanding afternoon. Some of the bows were beautifully colored almost like wild trout. Didn't catch any browns. Flies used: hares ear, scuds and zebras. Fished both zone 1 and 2.

FishinCricket Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 OK, I'm getting antsy to go now! Nice fish guys. You may hold off another day or two.. The spring is still running pretty high, but it is down to managable... By this weekend it should be golden down there.. It's a good thing the river is so close to work, or I'd never get any work done.. LOL cricket.c21.com
