Well as the title states I was supposed to continue a turf job that I have been on for the last few days, but plans change :) and I decided to head east in search of some chrome!! Arriving at the creek around 11 a.m. I had high expectations for this trip considering I hadn't been fishing in like 2 weeks, and for those of you who don't know me that is a literal eternity considering I fish 250+ days a year!! I parked and set-up my new SAGE reel at the truck and started stomping up stream to a hole that always has fish in it, to find no fish haha, so I walked up a little farther to find the mother load of fish. I threw every fly that I have caught a steelhead on and other that I haven't. I ended up landing around 40 fish, a solid estimate would be 20 on egg/nymph patterns, and 25 fish were swung up!! I couldn't believe how active the fish were, they were eating everything, so I tied on a steelhead waker and fished it for a few hours and had 2 takes but landed neither, this is a dream of mine to catch a steel on top, maybe 1 day.
