Sunday am went out for about 1 1/2 hours came home and went back out at 5:15 pm for another 2 hours.Both outings I caught
well.The day was overcast and thunderstorms threatened all day.
There were dark greyish brown caddis hatching all day long,but I
was not interested in matching the hatch.I tied on a bead head
caddis emerger and started catching right off, so for the full time out both trips I stayed with the same general idea just switching
up on colors. I wound up with 2 16 inch 1 13 inch and a bit more than a dozen 9 to 12 inch brownies.I also managed to miss probably about a dozen or so more.I don't mind missing them because I fish nymphs with no indicator or large dry suspending it.I enjoy the challenge of fishing strictly by feel.The beautiful brownies were biting very lightly but my Orvis T3 is very sensitive and I could feel the slightest bite while sweeping 40 feet of line down the bank. Yes,even though I could feel them the little brownies were quicker than me and got away. I wound up catching and releasing my share and can't wait til later in the week to try it again.Begging your pardon not a good day but a great day.
