July Heat Fishing Report

Hammer with a nice pre-hatch trout

Leo is growing to be quite a fine trout fisherman

Cold weather early in the season made for hexes coming off in the daylight

Hexes in the boatlights what a sight

?Got Bugs?

Jerry and I have 3 great days fishing, this is a Pine River bute before the storm



J.P. my man stings a nice trout in the last minute of the float



Dave with his first real hex hatch-- great time!




Mr. Dunn struck out the night before on the hex could not get a giant to the net,  but not during the day




?Got Summer Kings? We do and we know the areas they live....

Sorry it has been a while since I posted, with the heat the smallie fishing has really picked up and the night fishing for trout is really starting to peak.  Look for the hopper fishing to start picking up on the P.M. and the Pine for trout.  The baldwin and other small tribs around the Lodge are a perfect way to cool off and catch some nice trout. 

See ya on the creek

Noticed I have not posted any kind of pictures or report lately, been very busy with the boat company blessing of the bikes etc.  Went to the Catskill Mountains (Great Country) to drop some boats off.  If you like big water lots of bugs and out west like country there is no place better, when your there fish and stay with these guys.  http://www.baxterhouse.net/  ,,,  http://www.river-of-life.com/ Wayne took me and James Johnson Jr. for a float on the West Branch of the Delaware river was flooded but we did amazingly have good dry fishing in the evening.
