Well back to home waters. The river has started to reach summer form... decided to look at some newish water today and headed down stream from the pool. picked up a nice healthy little brook trout on a light cahill nymph followed that up with a couple of dace. After working my way down to the footbridge pool with no big fish to show for the effort I fished the run for a little while. Managed to turn one fish in the slough probably also on the cahill. In an effort to get back on that fish I switched to a partridge and yellow that I had tied. This brought nothing to hand - perhaps something that is lighter would have been better served. Regardless the river seemed to go to sleep around 8:00. Might have to start fishing earlier in order to find actively feeding trout.
River 20 CFS; 64 F at 6:00 am
