The streamer season began on Thursday and it was great!
So good, I went back for more yesterday. Initially, it was 47 degrees, then the temperature fell as the overcast sky was swallowed by spitting rain.
Guess what? I didn't use a streamer all day! The browns and bows were eating nymphs early and by noon, a strong baetis hatch was on. Perfect! What is better than a fall baetis day? Cold hands, cold water, bugs everywhere and big fish acting like idiots... love it!
Today, the rain has morphed into a windy and raw fall storm. The streams are, once again, high and off color. I hope they are fishable again before winter sets in. But if not, what a couple of days I had!
