I needed a "catching" fix after several dismal and "skunky" outings on more challenging streams, so I headed up to the Silver Fork for some small, hungry, and stupid fish (they must be stupid if I can catch them). The flows are down to mid-summer levels, but the water is still pretty cold. Ended up with many, many to hand, with the largest at 9", and I shook off the really small ones. EC Caddis was the ticket, but I think they would have grabbed anything. Hardly anyone else there. Weekdays are the time to go.
Driving back down into the valley was an eye-watering experience with all the smoke. I think I'll have to drive up to Truckee tomorrow to escape the smoke and try for some smarter fish. My success rate on the T has been pretty meager. Maybe this time!!!
Cheers,
El Rey
