Midges & Olives for 2012

Yes they are still on maybe not as heavy, Saturday morning was nice but at noon a front came thru and the wind picked up as the temp. fell. There were a few fish working on Midges, used a #24 down wing midge with a #24 glass bead brassie dropper off 4" of 7x flouracarbon and they had no problem eating them. All the fish were in the back waters or just off the seams. The Olives started about 1:30 PM but with the wind there was just no repeat risers but at least we know what to expect. Last Friday would have been the day to be on the water and I'll bet this Wed will be just as good- maybe a sick day?

Happy New Year 2012

Hello, I got my new PA 2012 Fishing license, it is a Senior version of the real one, lifetime with a trout stamp. I'm an old fart. Will be fishing this Saturday Jan 7th on Spring Creek, it's still at 150 cfs as of this morning and falling ever so slow, nothing else looks to be in good shape yet. I would love to fish Fishing Creek but will not take the chance till I hear from someone that the level is down, this stream has been up all year and I'm sure the trout are in great shape at this time. I'm excepting to see Midges, olives and Little Black Stones on the water, so we'll take 2 or 3 rods rigged up and wait and see what the trout tell us they want. I'll post on Monday, maybe with pictures.
Have a great year, I'll never have to worry about not having a license again
