The one-eyed cut-bow is king! I fished the "dream stream" on wednesday for a couple of hours before my flight back from Colorado Springs. Good fishing, but cold.
My brother and I fished Hot Creek Ranch this past Wed and Thur.? Hot Creek Ranch is dry fly fishing only and wading the stream is not allowed.? On Wed I caught 8 fish; 3 were between 14 and 16 inches and the other 5 were 8-9 inchers.? Thursday I caught only 4 fish, but they were all between 14 and 15 1/2 inches....
Can anybody give me some information as to why PG&E would do all their work and schedule it for September and October? These are two of the prime fishing months and now they are saying that the water is so muddy that we might not be able to get in there to fish it before it closes on 11/15. This makes no se...

Put on a soft hackle hares ear no luck.? Looked in the old fly box and pull out a Matt R special tied by Emerger.? C...
