I missed posting on Monday the 17th because we headed out on the river. We floated our regular winter section, Heise to Lorenzo. Fishing totally with streamers we managed to land 48 fish. The action was a bit slower than the last trip we took, but we still caught a good number of nice fish. No monsters this trip however. The biggest fish was 19 inches. The weather was cloudy and the air temperature was around 35 all day. This made for near perfect conditions. We had no ice in our guides and stayed very comfortable all day. The best patterns were olive and chartreuse streamers for the most part, but late in the day we switched to a white fish pattern and landed a number of nice fish as soon as we changed flies. We even landed one brown on this pattern that had a real white fish hanging out of his mouth. The weather looks good for the next few days, so get out on the river. Next week it looks like temps will dip down below freezing again so get up and go now.
