12-5-2009


Another clear, cold Winter day. Water temp again at 39 degrees. I fished a ways further up today. Water was very low up there and clear as gin. The skater was fishing like a dream pool after pool but no love to be found. The last pool I fished has a trough in front of some logs on the far bank where a couple of currents come together. I was wading way out and casting way downstream to fish the fly right as it landed and keeping it in the zone as long as possible. Third cast into it a perfect head and tail rise. A lovely hen with just a hint of rose on her flanks. Awesome! Two days in a row. That has not happened on the home river this year. We will see what tomorrow brings
