Streamer Fly Fishing has really picked up over the past couple weeks. Of course there are those days when you get a lot of chasers and only a few to the net but hell seeing the fish flash and chase after your fly is good enough for me. This time of year you turn a lot of big fish as well and your chance of landing them are exponentially higher than in the summer months thanks to the 1x you are chucking. I have been messing around with colors of streamers this year just to see what really gets the fish fired up. olive has always been a go to color for me but this year I am thinking outside the box. My lead Streamer has been a large yellow bunny conehead and I am trailing a natural colored Slump Buster behind it. So far so good but there are the times when I only reach for the trusty olive cone.


It has been doing this (snowing) alot lately much more than I would really like it to. Its that time of year when you are not quite ready for winter and just cannot put away the flip flops. Snow on the blue bus proved that its time to bust out the fleece. So thats what we did threw a bunch of warm layers in the dry bag and headed for a float It was one of those days when you turn a lot of fish but the ones that did cooperate were good sized. Ask Jason.

Soon those big browns that are all colored & kyped up will be lurking and looking to get fat before the big spawn. I just want to catch one…just one before it is all white out. Shorten the leader and get stripping.
