Hit Valley Creek this morning for a few hours. Water was extremely clear and low in spots. Fished for a few hours with my
Tenkara rod with unfortunately no real results. T
hink I had a couple takes on a
Zug Bug Nymph, but never got a solid hookset. Tenkara excels with dry flies, so learning how to manipulate the nymph on that sort of tackle has been a learning experience.
Switched over to my spinning rod & reel for about an hour and did bring two small (typical valley sized) trout to hand on a
size 4 gold Panther Martin, but by that time it was getting late and needed to get home. Was also getting warm - had bundled up for a cold morning, but was in the high 60s by the time I left. Gotta love weather like that in November!

The size 4 Panther Martin in gold with a black body is what I'm going to throw tomorrow. Weather has been nice here, also. Should be a good day.
ReplyDeleteCan get enough of the nice weather. Looks like it's going to turn here on Wednesday. Good luck tomorrow, I'm sure I'll be reading a post about it.
ReplyDeleteLate season fishing can be very special especially when the weather is in your favor. Glad to see you had some happy hook-ups.
