Meanderings

Stalking trout with dry flies. Floating, wading, and camping along the rivers. Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Winter trips to Mexico.

Just Downstream

Just downstream from the last couple days.  Depuys.  Same creek, different ranch.  Fewer bugs on the lower stretch I fished today, and they started a little later, but the fish came up on 'em.  Same bugs, but a size smaller. The 16's of Armstrong's got no love.  The 18's did.  I was fishing the long slick at Eva's.  Couldn't leave once it started.  The flat water lends itself to that season goal of the perfect in/out shot though.  Lesson learned.  Clear water, and glassy smooth water.  Then a bunch of luck.  Getting there.  One more creek day until fall.  Only July, but that already has some sobering finality to it.
