Winter session 43

Well, got out very briefly for some flying before heading out with the ol' lady. I hit my local spring creek and the trout were rising away to midges. So I tied on a griffiths gnat and missed two. Then trout were not interested in the fly anymore. So I swapped out for spent wondering stone and that fly was dynamite. 4 out 6 drifts resulted in takes and hook ups. The trout took the fly with zero hesitation. Got a text and this session was over.

  1. I hope you consider yourself lucky being able to fly fish this time. In Sweden we are getting near the spring which means fly fishing will be possible.

    Have fun with those lovely brookies,

    1. The creek I fish certainly has plenty of beauties in it. I would enjoy showing it to you sometime.
