Waking the Bear....

  Hello all and thanks for checking in at The O’Grady Flyfishing Adventures. The cold spell we had the last few weeks had Cat and I hibernating. I love the snow and cold in November but by this time of the year I am ready for the heat and watching the fish come alive. Had a few East coasters out for spin today and the river gave them a little bit of everything. The morning saw fish eating but being very picky, we hooked a few and got one beautiful 18 incher to the net but the fish jumped ship before we could snap a pic. Mitchell found out a little bit about our fish when he hooked a good one and it seemed to sing “welcome to the jungle” and completely cleaned his clock. At around 12:30 the fish just turned on completely and Mitchell got his revenge a gorgeous 20 and a quarter incher to the net. For about forty five minutes or so it seemed to be every few casts. And the one moment they stopped, fish disappeared and it was time for lunch. Hooked a few after lunch but nothing to the net.

  Saw very little bug activity today. No bwo’s and just a few midges throughout the day. The cold snap seemed to drop the temps by about three degrees and hopefully by later this week the fish really begin to turn on again. Fish were on the J-bomb early and moved to a grey emerger later. As always Connell, Cat, Winston and the Drift Fly Shop want to thank you for reading…
