Roaring River - January 16Th

[Wornica]

Beautiful weather for January (high around 55 degrees)( with an average amount of anglers on the water. I tried a cutthroat furled nymph leader for the first time and caught a rainbow on my first cast! I like the furled leader and will be interested to see how long it lasts. It definitely casts well. As usual I stopped by Tim's fly shop and he recommended the weighted white chamois worm. I put a peach egg pattern underneath it and caught 13 fish on the day with a 7x tippet.

For the first time I saw the hatchery truck stock the river while fishing. A great day!

Sounds like a good day and great weather for sure. Funny you should mention the hatchery truck. Friday, about late morning, we watched a hatchery truck load up and leave the hatchery at taneycomo. We commented on where it could be going. Looks like it might be the same one you saw. Thanks for the report.
