Pine Creek had gotten warmer over the past week. Fishing it still can produce a few fish but I chose not to on the warmer evenings. Just a little too warm. As I write this, the humidity has broke and the temperatures have cooled though - a welcomed relief from something undesirable - (defined as) … Continue reading The Expected and Unexpected Visitors

I did observe a large-ish light yellow mayfly on Pine as the evening progressed. I don't think it was a Grey Fox as I think the wings were more of a light cream colored nature. They certainly seemed to be too large for a Sulphur and, the wing was not the typical dun or grey … Continue reading Ole Black Jaw Meets a Simple BWO – Trout on the Clock

June 4th brought some rain later in the day. A little thunder and lightning accompanied with a few heavy downpours occurred. Clouds over Slate Run In all fairness, the clouds look much more menacing than they really were. Amazing what you can do in a photo editor. Still, I thought they looked interesting so I … Continue reading Between ‘a Rock and a Hard Place’… no, I mean the Thunder and the Rain

The evenings, is another story entirely. I went out and fished Pine last evening and had … Continue reading Evening on Pine – May 31

That statement is too simplistic to properly represent the amount of work that goes into running the show. I don't claim to know much more about the Brown Trout Club. I helped stock a few years … Continue reading A Morning’s Fishing and The Brown Trout Club

No, it can't be. I wake up this morning, the twenty-first of May and... May 21st about 8am Just keep telling yourself it's May 21st not March 21st. Well, I'm still at the cabin and had a chance to go up the mountain to do a little fishing yesterday. It was a beautiful weather sort … Continue reading Broken Rod, Scarlet, and Bambi

So... as I write this I am 'at the cabin'! I was able to leave, with permission from the local government, Sunday, returning to Slate Run for some projects I want to complete and to do some fishing. I headed down to the local metropolis to pick up some materials. Masked up, and with my … Continue reading Covid-19 Getaway

Finally I can give you some information about what is happening up in one of the runs at least! I am fortunate to be friends with someone that frequents the area and he got to fish Cedar Run this past weekend. With air and water temperatures falling from the previous week, the water temperature must … Continue reading 4-16-2020: Report from Cedar Run
