Fishing Today, 10-21

[dennis boatman]

put in about 10am at Bennett Access...me and my wife caught 10 or 12, all rainbows, mostly stocker size...picture is of the biggest...we kept 4 for a nice dinner tonight...with fried potatoes and cornbread...it was a great day on the river...i've still not caught a trout below NRO...go figure...saw a guy catch a nice fat rainbow at Barclay....geez...

...oops...here it is...

Looks better than stocker size. If you put in the time, you can catch em at Barclay.

...fished Barclay today and caught my first two rainbows there...one above the boat ramp at that long riffle, and one below the ramp...Finally!!!!!

What's with the apparent lack of trout near NRO? Is that poaching central?

[dennis boatman]

...we usually put the kayaks in at bennett and take out at Barclay...by the time we get to NRO, it's getting late, so we usually don't fish as hard in that area...I'm sure it has plenty of trout...

Dennis, that long riffle at the bend is by far the best fish holding area of the area. Pretty too with the steep cedar glade towering over the river. Is it low enough to move around pretty well?

[dennis boatman]

...I'd say it's about perfect for wading...gets a little deep in the pool below...some pretty good water below the ramp...I waded accross and went down the opposite bank as far as the "second" riffle...tying up some special flies...prob hit it again Tues. morning...

I've always caught fish at Barclay.If I want to walk I go down to where the Spring runs in and catch some pretty good size Browns.Plenty of Goggle Eye below the riffle too.
