Muddy Creek, York County, 06/03/2009

Fished with Dave Kile today on lower Muddy after a brief thunderstorm. Water was very clear before and became a little colored throughout the evening. Water temperature was 68 degrees, air temp 75-80.

after a long walk in we fished began with a dry and a bugger, Landed a small wild brown in the first run on the dry while Dave fished above with a bugger. After no rises I switched to a bugger and landed a couple fish, one a nice rainbow shown below. Ad the clouds cleared the light becam angelic as it streamed through the trees. It was very picturesque.

We plucked a few trout with buggers waiting for some sort of bug activity. We saw saome caddis and a couple sulfurs, a slate drake or two, a few bwos and at the end a nice spinner fall but couldn;t land any fish as we go to the riffle we wanted to fish a little late, sorry Dave.

Dave stalked a riser in the photo below and while missing the first one, picked up the second one a few yards above in some glassy water.

A nice time with our humble leader who allowed me to outfish him. But hey, its my home water....until next time.

Do my waders make my buttock look big in that first picture?

Thanks had a great time. Maurice knows how to guide you just right. We walked two miles in and I was just about to step into the stream and folks on ATVs were offering me drinks. The hostess was nice looking too! I can't even get that at home.

It was the first time in the section of the stream and the afternoon storm set up some very picturesque scenes along the stream. I think Maurice used the word angelic!

Great time.
