New Years Day Success
Put me on the board for 2019!
I originally had plans to fish in Lancaster county with Salmonoid but stream conditions were poor on that side of the susky so I headed west to York county in search of better water.
I decided to try the headwaters of an ATW that I hadn’t fished in 2 years. I was a little worried about the massive flooding the area received and how it might have affected the wild trout and stream habitat.
I am pleased to say that things are looking better now than before the flood with old holes retained and several new holes created.
The water was fantastic and the fishing was even better. Enjoy the pictures!
Green water and fast
First trout of the new year
Headwaters
Wild
Decisions
How did that sneak in?
More great water
And one more great wild brown trout
Fly of choice #6 black crystal flash wooly bugger all beat up
