OKFlyFisher44 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 It had been over a year since I had been on the creek but after the rain event we got a few weeks back, I couldn't resist so a buddy and me snuck over to check on the McClouds. The rain event definitely moved some gravel around. Changed some holes for the better and some for the worse. The RR trestle is totally backed up again with driftwood. Overall, the creek got a much needed flush and looked amazing! The fishing was great as it usually is when the water is up. The fish seemed to be holding in the riffles more than the deep holes this time around. The normal flies worked...big flashy nymphs. I did find myself changing flies more than normal on this trip but it was the same 3-4 flies. One particular fly would work in a spot but wouldn't in the next. Change to a different pattern and would pick up fish. Kinda odd cuz usually I find 1-2 flies that work that particular day and stick with them. The fish looked great and very healthy. I love this place.... Took the GoPro along this time to do some filming. Finally sat down today and put a video together of the trip. Hope you guys enjoy it...

Buzz Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Great video Chance. My favorite section of the creek too. If fishing was easy it would be called catching.

crappie_adams83 Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I was wondering where you parked at and started your trek if every body had a pole and a fish on the line there would never be a war
