Today's Menu?

It was quite a change today from yesterday. Weather was nicer. Though temp was lower, less windier and less wetter. Hatch was................NONE to sparse.........= a few rising trout. It was still "supposed to be" BWO-ish condition!! I always try to think like trout but I can't imagine to think like BUGS at this point.............Anyway I stayed all day and had some fun. If not, I always have things to "learn & observe" as "spring creek is the classroom of fly-fishing"!!

I'm a dedicated fisherman to start this early on a cold day! Usually cars are passing over the bridge but today this little guy (developing little horns!!) was occupying.......

OK start..........

Next one! A bit larger.........

These two were all I got today. There was one huge tug that snapped of my tippet but that's all I can say. I did my best with my dry-flies to sparse number of rising trout..........

I end this post with the introduction of a little streamer in the second brown's mouth. That's Willy's Micro Zonker (click for tying video). Fabric Paint used is called SCRIBBLES that you can find in art/craft stores (in my case Michael's). I personally coat eyes and Scribbles with Clear Nail Manicure (that you can find in cosmetic departments). Apparently I tie in Black and Size 10 and fish behind bigger streamers (YES two streamer rig at spring creeks!!). This has been very effective as other patterns that I have introduced here before.

I decide if I visit DePuy's tomorrow or not when I wake up. We know it's good to rest a fishing spot a while then come back later but DO bugs need rest to hatch too?? Yeah, they might have been eaten till extinction yesterday then.............
