Fished the West Branch of the Perkiomen from about 10am to 1 and managed to land 8 browns and missed 2 others. They ranged from 6" to 10" and all were caught on either a hares ear or baetis nymph. The water was just above 40 degrees and clear. I didn't see any bugs hatching but did see a few rising trout.

I went to the main branch of the Perkiomen after leaving the west. Water seamed colder but I didn't check the temp. Fished for about an hour and caught 2 more browns. Same flies as the west. All in all a great day! Can't ask for nicer weather at the end of November. Hope is holds out until next weekend for a day on Penns.
