Day 67
Spent the day on Clear Creek, starting up by Kermits and trying a few new spots on my way downstream. It was a beautiful mid 60's day with just a hint of wind. The creek was flowing around 40 cfs and mostly clear until the end of the day when the snowmelt clouded it up.
In one spot I could see a couple of fish swimming around but could not get them to take either dries or nymphs. I find another group of fish in a different spot and get close as I could see a little one following a san juan worm but pulled away at the last second. I fish for a few more hours with no action before I caal it a day.
Another great day out in the river, even being skunked.
Rod: Iwana 12'
Line: 13' Traditional Tenkara
Flies that DID NOT work: san juan worm, gold pheasant tail nymph, black beauty, bwo, parachute adams, pmd, extended body bwo, midge
