Looking for some suggestions/guidance on how to approach and get better success on this stream fly fishing.
Iv caught some nice brookies over the years in here with a spin rod and worms. So I know they are in here!
I have fished the still waters down further of this stream with lots of success on the fly already this spring. Mostly catching them on pheasant tails and Griffiths nat. The may fly hatch is right around the corner aswell.
Trying to challenge myself a bit more this year. Iv been trying to move up stream as I go, and target the pockets/boulders and seams with a variety of drifts/styles. Iv spent a few days on this water (like 6hrs) at a time and not a single bite. Tried emergers, dry fly, wet flies, nymphs. Adjusted my depths / weights etc.
I dont mind a bit of a struggle, its forcing me to try new things but somedays I just default to the still waters because I want to catch something honestly! Trying to learn more from each day out, I want to be able to have the same level of success across this river on the fly rod.
