Beautiful morning on the water.  Fishing wasn't too strong, but there were fish to be caught.  There was minimal wind to start the day, but the wind gradually got stronger throughout the morning.  After 12:00 the wind was a strong and solid 10+ mph into your face, which made casting extremely difficult.  The fish didn't seem toContinue reading "Fishing May 3rd"

                 What a great few days of fishing!  Caught some nice numbers at Roaring River and Beaver Tailwaters White River this long weekend.  Took Friday off from work and hit Roaring River after the morning rains. The water was high and the visibility was only 6 inches. Makes it tough when you are relying onContinue reading "Great fishing April 24-26th"

Great Sunday afternoon to get out and catch some trout on the Beaver Tailwaters.  I had a couple free hours to fish, so I tied on the Rootbeer Midge and went to work.  Things started off pretty bad as I kept having problems with my 7x tippet.  I'm nearing the end of my roll soContinue reading "Happy Pollen Season, April 12th"

Lots of rain throughout the night and continued off and on most of the morning.  Water was slightly clouded from the run off, but not terrible. Fishing started off slow for me.  I managed to get quite a few subtle bites, but was only able toContinue reading "Beaver Tailwaters, Pi Day, March 14th"

Great morning fishing the Beaver Tailwaters this morning.  The weather was nice and the fishing was fair.  The fish weren't all that active, but was still able to catch some descent numbers.  I tied up some different midges this week with the stretch cord and tried them out.  Got a little action with a red version,Continue reading "Feb 14th, Valentines Day fishing outing"
