E. Licking Creek, Juniata Co. 2/2/2013

Hit the DHALO section today from about 1:30-5:00. Water was up to a nice flow, but clearing fast. Only used one fly, a black BH Bunny leach (my fav brookie fly) missed several and landed 5. Learned that the magnetic net holders work great until the magnets FREEZE together. Went to net a decent fish and couldn't pull the net off my back. Released the fish still in the water then took my vest off to discover the problem........hmmm it was a nice 22 degrees when I started but little wind made it quite bearable to be out.

I always enjoy fishing that section but unfortunetly didn't make it up last year.

High water and a black bugger is fun fun fun!
