Yellow Creek Fishing Report 5/10&11/09

[Nate]

My brother and I fished Saturday and Sunday. Despite the high waters we managed to catch some nice fish. One was a 17"brown and a 16.5" golden rainbow. (which was probably the fattest fish i ever caught) On saturday i didnt notice too much bug activity. I did however catch a quill gordan, but there wasnt enough for a good hatch. I caught most of my fish on a #14-16 hairs ear, #14 pheasent tail and a #14 prince nymph. On Sunday the water went back down but it still was off color. I nice hatch of black caddis came off (I did not have any with me). Next weekend should be better since the water will be lower.

Nate,
Very nice golden rainbow. A lot of people have mixed feelings about them, but I don't think anyone can deny that is a beautiful fish.

nice report and nice fish but my ornery nature makes me want to ask innocently if that Quill Gordon put up a good fight.:]

I despise them, but that is one hell of a beauty.

I got the joke pete lol. He took off like a bullet straight for the trees but he had the backbone to fight him in.
