Winter Steelhead

Over the holiday I got in my fix of fishing for the big guys!!! I don't know what I like better, fishing dries to risers on the Madison or drifting eggs past 10lb fish in western new york!!!! The scenery is always great during the winter, fishing is often more difficult but all of the ice falls make up for the lack of fish.


Naples


Over Christmas tried some surf fishing with a fly rod in Naples, FL. I hadn't caught anything with every other method I tried so i figured go to what I know.....stripping streamers. I managed a few small jacks which were a lot of fun. There were larger fish in the surf however they were very spooky I couldn't manage to get a presentation to them....Next trip!!!

Gunpowder Trip

Over the weekend I decided it has been way to long since the last time i chased after the trout of the gunpowder. So i decided to head up there forgetting how early it gets dark these days and found very challenging conditions and little time to figure it out. The water was low and the fish were spooked from a couple of 70 degree days. So Matt and I caught nothing except one trout below the damn......next time.

Gunpowder Report

Fished the Gun after work today. Fish were actively feeding on the surface and landed my first fish on a dry fly for the year!!! Moved a few larger fish with a streamer however failed to hook them. Good to see decent fish in the river. Things are so much easier when there are bugs hatching, love evenings this time of year.
