TR 7/17 to 7/19

I jigged mostly and did some drifting when the water came up. Dominant lure was the old faithful Olive Drab woolly bugger gold head in 1/16oz variety. Caught majority of my fish on that and also some small scuds and green zebra midges when I was drift fishing. The orange head sculpin pattern jigs seemed to have slowed down, and there were times I threw just about every pattern of maribou at them with very little success. I stuck this fish on Saturday wading out from the bank down by the first outlet. Fish was strong and made 2 great runs almost out to the main channel and even gave me 2 nice launches straight up out of the water like a missile.

And heres a few in the net. Including a little Brownie

Overall a great trip still, caught around 20 or so total fish. Only fished the outlets for a little bit as I prefer to jig and get a bit further out, but there were some folks there literally catching them as soon as the fly hit the water almost. On Saturday they schooled up at Outlet number 1 so thick that you could have walked across them... Never seen so many fish in one place. It was crazy.

Sunday it slowed down and I am guessing the fish moved a bit further down. Caught a few then sadly had to make the drive back home.

Until next time,

Tight Lines everyone.
