Last week felt more like summer than spring and
water temperatures continue to climb higher with most streams and rivers
stopping the thermometer in the mid-fifty degree range. Bugs – including at
least one mosquito – are showing up as well. Yesterday I encountered a great
little black stonefly hatch and caught a few glimpses of caddis. Unfortunately,
the fish don’t seem to be looking up yet and that’s what I am hearing from
other anglers and guides. That being said, streamers and nymphs are still the
only game in town for those looking to move fish. I offer the 13-inch brook
trout pictured as evidence caught yesterday on a streamer. Finding cooperative
fish has been difficult, but if the chance is out there to put a fish like this
one in my hand, you’ll know where I will be.
