Early October Fishing

Blog Tags: 

The rain from Hurricane Kyle did not hit us as hard as expected but we still had enough water to raise the rivers lakes and ponds pretty significantly. The river is not at flood stage but definitely bank full. No wading for trout this week anyway. I have guided a few parties getting in one last fishing trip before winter this week and have one more before I switch over to grouse hunting for the rest of the month.

 

The best time of year!

I think that September is without a doubt the best time of the year. The weather is settled and warm during the day with cool nights. This morning I took advantage of a day off and went fishing. No big expedition just an hour on Seven Tree Pond to try and catch a few perch on a fly. I have been trying all summer to find the fly that really works on perch without much luck. Because it was still and sunny I could watch the fish even if they did not take the fly making ideal conditions to see what they were interested in.

The End of Summer

The weather has definitely changed now, the wind is blowing pretty strongly out of the northwest and the angle of the sun is getting low in the sky. I can tell because it gets hard to see down into the water making my job just a little more difficult. The sky is that crystal clear blue that we get in clear cool air. The crickets are chirping steadily in the warm afternoons and getting in the house at every opportunity.
