The Monsters Come out For Halloween

Well this day on the river was not what we expected it to be. Randy and Brian fished the Upper South Fork on the 30th of October thinking that the streamer fishing would be outstanding. The river is running higher than it has in the past few years at this time and we figured that this would mean good things for us. It was not. The streamer fishing was not good. Every thing seemed right. The clouds were out, the temp was cool, the water looked perfect, and it is late October. Everything was perfect. But the fish were not hitting the buggers the way that they should have been. After hours of fishing and only landing a handful of fish we moved on to nymphing. This proved to be a smart tactic. We caught several nice fish and this one monster brown. The Upper South Fork is defiantly the place to find those huge Browns and Rainbows that we all dream of. Get out and do some fall fishing. This is the best time of the year!
