Rather than guiding John on the Farmington I decided to take John to the upper reaces of the Housatonic.

The fishing was surprisingly good. We caught a mix of wild and holdover brown trout. We landed over 10 in close to five hours! I even was able to get a few!

We did well on caddis larvae, Small Mayfly nymphs and THE WORM .... what a surprise!

There was not a ton of insect activity but we saw some , ISO's, BWO's, caddis and a few summer stenos. The water temp was a cool 66 degrees. The fisah all fought valiantly and were quickly returned to the water.

John is our newest Euro n ymphing convert!
