Fishin Report 6/9-6/17

[ruthead]

Spent over a week at the spring with the family (less 2 days fishin Taneycomo) and caught tons of fish. Size seemed better than recent years past. Both my boys(12 and 15) have both developed into fine fly fishermen. Makes a Dad feel proud when my 12 year old grabbed my rod and could double hull to the far bank and I couldn't. Anyway.....caught lots and lots of trout. Spent most of the time in zone 2 stripping cracklebacks and soft hackles. Also learned how to fish a dry beatle. It was a blast and the trout tore them up. Spent a couple late afternoons and evenings from the rock bluff and up and hardly had anybody in sight. Only disappointing part was not much hatch so dry flyin was pretty slow but the strippin made up for it. Probably picked 2 of the busiest weekends with free fishin the first weekend and Fathers Day the second. Stream was pretty crowded on the weekends but nice through the week.
