Winter session 17, attack of the U.V. H.H.E.

  Well got today for some more flying. It was a productive day, the trout wouldn't take anything other than the U.V. High Test Hare's Ear.  It was remarkable how not one came on the trailer, but the hares ear is a deadly fly. We fished a section of stream that we haven't fished in a long time. It was a lot of fun relearning it and re-exploring it.  Josh managed a double tri-fecta. One coming from 1 run alone.  The day went quick, with many fish to hand. It was nice to catch wild brook trout, as well as my favorite....WILD BROWNS!!!!  Some stone flies were milling around, and midges started to hatch, but the fish stayed tuned into the U.V. High Test Hares Ear.  All in all it was a great day to be outside in the wild.

  1. JU,
    Beautiful fish all. Those trout are well fed and well proportioned. Some of the brows look like salmon, and the halos on those brookies, awesome.

    1. Al,
      Thanks, I really do enjoy the beauty of the trout. Those fish are getting fat off the heavy amount of stoneflies in this creek, and let me tell you they fault like well fed fish as well. I was excited to catch those brookies, just beautiful.

  2. Love the Browns hard to beat for catching but the fins on a nice Brookie are awsome.

    1. I agree! Browns have great power even when small.
