2/24/23 (1-3pm)


I didn't get out fishing yesterday as I had hoped.  I ended up going to Grices and looking at some holsters for my pistol, while my Grandfather bought a new rifle.  I did get out this afternoon and the fishing was pretty good for the winter.  I caught 8 in two hours, I was on SC behind the BSH.  I nymphed the entire time with a size 14 frenchie as my lead fly and a size 16 sowbug as a trailer.  The fish seemed to target the sowbug more than the frenchie and has proven as my most successful winter nymph this year again.  The water was pretty low and and I had success targeting the areas that were deeper beside pocket water.  Water was very clear so I am sure I spooked many fish before I had a chance to catch them.  The air temp this afternoon was 36 degrees F and there was only a little wind.  It was an overcast day as well.  The stream was running at 93 CFS at the Ax gauge.  It looks like tomorrow would be a great day to get out but it is back to work.
