Water Temp: 60
From carp to saki in 15 minutes flat.
What an incredible day folks. We started early at the pump house with barely sight fishable trout feeding suspended all along the edges of deep drops. More times than we cold count the big trout would hit with extraordinarily subtle takes. Time and time again the lunkers came off. A more timid soul probably would have given up. But we know how to persevere. After netting a few more trout working upstream we took the high road to the Highline hole. Lou stopped short as he spotted two giant carp in a warm water pool. My first attempt failed but I had watched them long enough to see the path they were cruising and that they were tailing readily. I worked upstream to present a nice slow drift in the slack water. This magnificent creatures tasting of my fly took the indicator almost halfway under water. I set the hook and 15 minutes later Lou tried to stuff this thing in his net. Shortly after it was saki to me time at MoMo’s Japanese steakhouse. Nymph progressively smaller patterns suspended 2-4 feet down. Downstream Norm sent us this report of a lovely brown above Alberts Hole. Maps are available on our crappy fly shop page. I promise I’ll get it updated soon folks. Cast upstream of the drop offs so your offering is down when it gets there.
Tight lines,
Ben
