Past 2 trips

Fished with Mike Sr. and Mike Jr. for two days this week, and let me tell you what, the fishing was fantastic! We boated 4 fish in two days they were all real quality fish. We lost another really good one at the net, and missed some other big fish. All and all it was a super fun two days, and a real pleasure to share it with two class "A" guys.
The second day of the trip we even had to battle snow showers, but that wouldn't stop the hendricksons, or Paraleps, in fact it seemed to keep them on the water longer to give the trout an easier meal.

Product Review

Just got my new Simms Freestone Boots with the "Stream Tread" soles, and let me tell you, they are great! I was expecting to have a pair of boots that would be fine in the boat, but would leave a lot to be desired, however I was dead wrong. These boots are the exact opposite. In fact so far they have out performed my felt bottoms! They are worth the money. Not only are they great on the Upper Delaware, they are also environmentally friendly so that way I can do my part in trying to stop the spread of Didymo.

Another Big Delaware Brown

Fished the Mainstem yesterday, and there were TONS of bugs again yesterday, however the fish were not as hungry as the day before. Got one big one to save the day. We had plenty of target to fish for from 4pm on. Hendricksons and Apple Caddis are the two bugs that are must haves right now.

Awesome day!

Fished with Kevan, and we found some serious rising fish today. TONS of bugs and Tons of heads, and no one on the water. It was an absolutely awesome day. Kevan ended the day with an absolute SLOB.


A pictures worth a 1,000 words

I will let the pictures do the talking. All fish caught in the past two days!

Hendrickson Time!

Right now the Upper Delaware is fishing great. Paraleps and Hendricksons are coming in good numbers from 12pm until 5pm then it seems like the flies and fish shut off. Up during that window the fishing has been awesome. Many big fish are coming to hand, and the fishing has been as fun as can be. Not huge numbers of landed fish but it is definitely worth the trip up. Here is a pics of one of the bunch of landed fish from today. Hope the fishing stays this good!

The fun is just begining

Fished the past two days and we have put the streamers away. It dry fly season!! Today was a very good day considering the conditions. I hooked a REAL good one on a blue quill emerger, but he came unbuttoned right at the net... heart breaking. Kevan got a good one also on a blue quill emerger.

and i finsihed the day with a 3 small ones on the mainstem. Things have really kicked off the past 3 days. Stoneflies, Blue Quills and Hendricksons are now the main bugs. Yes you read that right HENDRICKSONS!

get here before the crowds do!

will post pictures when i get them off of peoples cameras.
