Thanks, I'll remember that. Just want a few specific nymphs when the fish get picky.

The strongest I can find, as long as it is supple. I don't like stiff tippet material that can impede the drift. I don't know if nylon or fluoro makes a difference from the fishes point of view. But I use 7x tippet for smaller flies, especially where there are selective fish. Typically size 18 and smaller. If I can get away with heavier tippet, I will. I also don't like to handle fish. The slime on them is there for a reason.

Try this stuff. It's the best I've used w/great knot strength. Tippett is too expensve unless you have sacks of money buried in the back yard. # per # vs others I've used, it's stronger and a lower diameter plus you can save some on $/spool.
Pline Fluorclear - 2# (7x equivalent). I've landed 23-24" trout with it so it's proven. Plus it doesn't kink and curl after tying a couple of knots and landing fish. I started using it for steelhead and it hasn't disapointed. The only negative is the light stuff is hard to find. Get it online and save $. Good luck.

Hooked 16 that's pretty good.
Someone tell me, when I was there, it seemed like there was not too many fish in the creek anyone else notice that?

I thought the opposite in Dec and Jan fishing there. Was actually quite suprised a fish in every hole despite the flooding of 2011. Love the gravel-ly stream bottom everywhere too!

Point being,
There are plenty of fish. Sometimes they like what we're tossing, other times they could care less
