Well, I haven't gotten out the fly rod since my last post two months ago....

I did manage to get over to lake Shasta for some Bass fishing. It was the worst the fishing has ever been in the past 8 years I have gone. The cold weather really got the fish down.

It was a good time but I sure can't wait to get back on the river...

for some of these.......

Last Thursday...

Only one fish Pic today was of steves first fish of the day a nice redside on a pt nymph.

Man was it cold and windy last week when we got out. The early hatch was non-existant due to the colder water. We still managed 13 fish between 3 of us. I think we got about 5 on dries.



Flies:
1. Mega Prince size 8.














2. Copper John black/blue size 14
3.PT soft hackle








4.March Brown Cripple
5. march brown dry











6. Pheasant Tail size 14 bead head of course.

All in all a great day on the water. The water spiked hard friday so hopefully we can get out thursday again and do some damage.

Got out again last week.....

The March Browns and the BWO's were hatching big time. Pretty crazy to see epic hatches at 10 am. Ill take it!!! Lots of Big fish as well one really long cutthroat and several oversized Bow's.
Flies of choice:
1. Possie Bugger size 8/10 standard and olive.
2. size 16 silver and black copper john.
3. pheasabt tail soft hackle size 12.
4. march brown cripple (dry)
5. march brown emerger

Results:

Highlight of the trip was a very long cast to a very nice 18" bow that was destroying march brown adults drifting by this huge rock.
It just played out perfectly and she let me snap a couple of pics of her.
