Tom just sent an email out about heading up to HBP this evening and requested additional fishing reports…Here’s mine from\u00a0last weekend.\u00a0 I fished Friday & Saturday, July 22nd & 23rd.\u00a0 The activity picked up nicely\u00a0both days in the evening on the lake.\u00a0 I fished all dry’s both evenings and landed quite a few…15+ fish\u00a0on Friday and 10+ fish\u00a0on Saturday with 6:30 to 7:30PM being the most productive hour.\u00a0 I used Parachute Adams, Olive Elk Hair Caddis, Red Humpy, Royal Wolfe, BWO…all worked\u00a0well.\u00a0 The fish would go after my fly within the first few casts of putting it\u00a0on and I would cast into the heavy foam.\u00a0 Once I landed the fish and continued they would be on to me, so I changed the fly.\u00a0 Once\u00a0I put on a\u00a0new fly\u00a0they went after it.\u00a0 I’ve always had good luck when I change fly’s often.\u00a0 I landed a few 17″+ rainbow’s…real niiice!!!\u00a0 I\u00a0had some\u00a0good activity\u00a0in the section of the river just below the lake as well.\u00a0 The river flows out of the lake then bends left into slower deeper water.\u00a0 We cleared this section out about 2 years\u00a0ago so there are no branches to get snagged underneath the water when you’re stripping back in.\u00a0 I rigged up a Prince Nymph bead-head with a Hairs Ear trailer with an indicator at about 10 ft up.\u00a0 I parked myself in waste deep water about 25 yards down from the bend and worked the slow moving water.\u00a0 As I worked the drift, I had a couple of nice hits and finally landed a nice 16 inch fat bow.\u00a0\u00a0It was a great time at the club and I met a number of new members as well!!!<\/p>\n
