Iowa's Driftless streams - August 2016

My buddy Jay and I flyfished for trout in NE Iowa on Tuesday and Wednesday. We visited 3 streams within ~1/2 hour of Decorah. Always an adventure. :smiley:


Does this look like Iowa?? ;o)

This Bald-Faced Hornet nest was about chest-high above the ground, and we nearly walked right into it. I slid my cell phone under it and snapped a picture. Pretty cool!

Here’s pics Jay took of some of his fish:

Its cool just being there!

Great report!

​Looks like a beautiful place to fish !!!

Headed up the way with a buddy next week (the Wisconsin side).
Hope to have same kind of experience. And my name is Jay so maybe I can repeat your buddy’s success!

Thank for posting all of he photos. It looks beautiful. The drought continues here in PA.

GREAT pics and report. BUT are there any good pork tenderloin sandwich places nearby? After a day like that, a frosty mug and a Frisbee sized cutlet Sammy would hit the spot for sure.
