Sight fishin' to big'uns!

The Fall has some big fish cruising in it's clear waters lately. The hatchery is the probable reason for the number of these fish. It's a great place to slowly walk the banks while peering into the clear waters looking for those tell tale signs of fish. When spotted, approach cautiously and take your time to make your first presentation the best that's possible. Sinking a "bug" into the fish's zone becomes the hardest part. Most occasions these fish are relating to some sort of woody structure, most likely behind or under said structure. Fast sinking nymphs or streamers are a good bet. The major bug activity will be PMD's in the early afternoon and Caddis and PED's in the evening time frame.
