5-23-11 Fishing Report

Dry Fly Season is Here!


This fish hit a waking fly




Believe it or not there are still fishable #'s of steelhead

Great group trip with the Ross Family

Babe Ruth : Brad called his shot on a nice Big MO buck









All the bugs are hatching and I have no more official steelhead trips but there are still quite a few pockets of them around in particular rivers. With the cold weather continuing the bugs will slowly hatch every decent night making a great extended dry fly season.


I have a few openings this week,,,,give us a call and get on some of the best dry fly trout fishing of the year. P.S. saw several big stonefly's (Pteronarcys) on the screens this morning ((Terry Time is Here!!))


See ya on the creek....
