The UOTF freeze your buns off party Saturday was just enough to get my juices flowing. I broke down this morning and headed out foe some "ICE" fishing.
Getting there was fun as the clouds were right on the ground.
But once there, I walked down the river heading to a spot I wanted to try. As I came around the corner, I notice two gentlemen fishing there. I greeted them and asked how they were doing. The replied, not a bite, and I was welcome to try as they were heading down river. So, I cast out the little dry dropper set-up and BAM! Fish on! Needless to say, the gentlemen stayed a few more casts before moving on.
I stayed and fished the edge of a little gravel fall and it was awesome!
Did I mention it was cold?
Rod choice was a little 8' three piece 3/4 Grey I purchased on "Deals On The Fly" for a killer price. The rod worked perfect, I like it allot!
Flies of choice, I was using a #22 Black Midge dry….
…. with a 20" dropper and a #22 silver tungsten bead WD40 grey....
All the fish were safely released:
Great morning an allot of fish, but it was MAJOR cold as the fog did not burn off. The drive home was in and out of fog:
