Good day on Clear Creek
Today I headed up to Clear Creek after first trying Bear Creek. When I got to Bear Creek I found the water stained even though the flows have been decreasing for a week. i fished it for about a half hour with no luck before calling it and heading over to Clear Creek.
My first stop is at a new spot to me and in the lower section of the canyon. This section was mostly stair stepped plunge pools on the edges which worked well for my wet wading. I walk downstream from the car a ways and fish my way back up over the next couple of hours. After trying a few different flies I land on a parachute adams and manage to land five at this spot. It's still early so I decide to head upstream a little and find a new spot.
The new spot is set up the same as the other so I work my way up the near bank. Still throwing an adams I pull in another five at this spot with a couple more hooked but not caught. By the time I end it's 6:30pm and I head back home with a good day of fishing in the books.
Rod: Wakata 9' 5/5
Line: Furled 12'
Fly that Worked: Parachute Adams
