Gettin Better

[Bill Babler]

Roland Duffeld and the Brothers were out for dinner last night and boy did we have a good visit.

Fishing has been really tough for the boys in the mornings, and has picked up very nicly in the afternoons. Same report we have been getting. You need some water movement or wind to get these fish to bite. I didn't see the boys until after 9 this am, they should have been out earlier.

I started at Short Creek and worked my way up to the just above Fall Creek this morning. Fish were midging everywhere and it was the best morning I have had in a while.

Didn't seem to matter what we drifted on the spinning rods they liked it.

Seemed to really like the orange strike indicator as it would have caught as many as the nympths if we would have had a hook in it.

Finished at Cooper Creek with a ton of fish on a ginger micro. I know Lincoln and his dad were also catching fish, but for the like of me I saw very few boats,and there were lots, catching any fish.

You could sight fish and just chase the midgers around and do very well. Best bug beside the micro was a size 14 black and red zebra.

I have fly fisherman tomorrow and I'm going to assult them with dry's and see if they like them as well as foam strike indicators.

Good to see the fish eating.
