It was low to say the least. It amazes me that fish can live in a stream like this. I was catching 10 inch trout out there this spring and this has been a very mild and wet summer compared to the past five years. Brook trout are a resilient fish. I tossed a fly into a couple pools and caught a couple trout this size:
I'm eager to get back this fall and see what the normal stream flow is and how the larger trout did hiding under rocks.
if a little 4 inch trout is going to eat a fly of that size... (12-14)? I'm starting to wonder why I make so many flies in size 18. I guess if I want to catch that large brook trout I've been dreaming about, I gotta tie it on a shark hook! Look how aggressive that guy was. Hahaa.
ReplyDeleteThey were very aggressive. I caught about 5 that size. All on a size 14 stimi.
