yellow breeches, Cumberland county, 11/16/14

Fished yellow breeches with my long time buddy for the first time sunday from about 11-4. Stopped by the fly shop first to get some supplies and got a map and some pointers on where the fish were most active. Started off at "The run" right below the lake then made our way downstream to where it ran into the breeches. While my day consisted of mostly tangles I did manage to bring one nice rainbow to hand. My buddy had a more successful day, catching 6 in all, 4 rainbows and 2 wild browns. All were caughat on beadhead PT's and various midges. While again I didn't have the best of days this was a great outing and I can see why this stream has such a reputation, it was absolutely beautiful and left much to still be explored. I cant wait to go back.

Glad you had a good day on the breeches. I think a lot of the open water is underrated. But if you explore a bit, you'll get into wild browns. I feel lucky to only have a 5 minute drive to it. I can't wait until spawning is over.
