I needed a little "home cooking" before my trip to Montana this week. I headed up to the WB and thats what I got. Like Loren said Shallow fast water holds many large trout! Large trout were the key to today. A good amount over 20" inches. I took some nice artistic photos of the fish being released. i will try to get them up soon. If I wanted to do grip and grin photos I might have worn my arms out with pics of 20" wild trout . It's that good there for big wild trout. No secret river here! However, one would have thought I was at Location "X" of trout fishing or something of the like. Lo and behold it was only Delaware County, New York.

The hatches are very slow and I think that this is directly related to the Didymo. We have both been up here many times are during the same time period to see blanket hatches of olives and sulphers. We saw good number of olives but only adjacent to areas near weed beds, which is a habitiat that the didymo cannot attach itself to.

I even caught a bunch on dries including another 20 inch fish. They were taken on size 20 snow shoe rabbit bwo's

I fished both strike indicator and Euro methods of nymphing. The only thing was that no matter the method used all trout were taken on small brown nymphs in sizes 16-18.
