The Tully Berks 5/01/2009

[Van_Cleaver]

Fished from mid morning til mid afternoon near the overpass. The weather was cloudy, with some rain, and the water charging (211 cfs) but clear. Surprisingly crowded for a gloomy week day. Lots of caddis, and a few midges, but saw only a hand full of risers, and they weren't steady. Took several on a bh caddis pupa, and a couple on an ant. They were tougher than usual for me, but I had some nice fights out of the bigger ones. Best fish was a beautifully marked rainbow that appeared to be a holdover. Was shocked that the fish was only 14'', but she needed Jenny Craig! Beat the heck out of working, and that's a fact.

I fished the Tully today from 12-230PM. Not many flies some some coming off. Had only one taker of about 12 different nymph styles, it was a BHHE. Switched to a heavy bugger and did better. 4 cars at the paper mill, 4-5 fishermen in the Rebers bridge area. I thought it was sort of active too for a gloomy mid-day Saturday.
