I fished the creek on Tuesday.  It was a really nice day with crowds at a minimum.  There was a decent hatch of BWOs in the early afternoon.  It was neat to see some of the monster fish actually rise to these tiny insects.  I hooked some really nice fish but none in the net.  I had two fish half way in my net.  One, a 15"er, took off again and threw the hook.  Another, about 22", broke off as tried to horse him in the rest of the way.  I had a few more hookups, one being a huge male that just wouldn't give up.  I guess he was about 22-23".  He eventually broke me off.  Flies of the day were a #20 BWO nymph and a #22 midge imitation.

I also fished the creek on Saturday, 30 Dec.  I had a nice day then, too.  Crowds weren't as bad as I expected.  I hooked six and landed two.  One was 20" spawned-out female.  The other was a 24" male.  The big male fought hard.  I'm surprised I didn't break him off.  He looked really clean with no marks on him and had amazing coloration.  Both of these fish were caught on egg patterns.
