One of the best times to fish

Now is one of the best times that you might have this year to fish, March Brown's, Grey Fox, Caddis, Stoneflies, Crane flies and of course Sulphurs! It can be very hard to determine exactly what the trout are on at some times but when in doubt it's usualy the smallest fly (because most of time it's the largest population). I love this time and will wade up the middle of the tail outs of pools and fish to the banks using a March Brown or Grey Fox emerger usualy with great sucess and this year has been no exception BUT at any given time I'm ready to change if I see some other kind of activity. At this time of year I'm not really a fan of spinners because the dam March Brown's seem to appear then poof don't fall and you got nothing in your hand. This year seems to have more anglers than normal and that is a trend that is concerning because of some of the no trespassing signs that have popped up, another sign of just stupid people joining our ranks- please take up golf and get the hell off our streams. This past week I saw stupid people parking in places that should have been left open but again in their haste they choose to park up a lot and not leave any room for the camp owners! If you want to see a total zoo this week go to Spring Creek and partake in the Sulphur experience, it's not bad during the day BUT in the evening it is just not something you want to see, total combat fishing just as bad as the stupit Green Drake on Penns! The sulphur harch and spinner fall on Penns will chalange the best of us because of the different stages of the emerging duns and what each fish is feeding on and the same holds true for the spinners, males or females which is on the menue. Please be respectful of all land owners and most of all each other, let's keep this a clean experience.
