Got out on Valley today after work, its was roughly 3:00 so it was still pretty warm outside 60 ish. Water temp is a cool 55.4 degrees and conditions were low & clear, I would say real clear! discharge was 17 CFPS

Fished it from the USGS station up, made it to one of my favorite tree stumps (FoxGap, you know the one) fish the hole from the back and pick up this little guy.

continue to work the whole to the front and picked up this guy:

About this time an Olive hatch came off or at least it looked like an Olive Hatch:

Did not see any fish rising, a splash here or there, so I matched it and went topside, with out any luck. Switch back to green weenie and finished that section and called it a night.

So far that's my favorite section of the creek.

I agree with you paparise.

Nice job! VC is challenging stream some days. Great looking wild browns!
