I fished the Metolius today… family vacation up to Camp Sherman in Central Oregon.
Now, the Metolius is known for a couple things… being really tough and really beautiful.
Today, I found the river to be as beautiful as ever, but not that tough… at least for tiny fish. I found the small fish in the Metolius and I caught them… all of them.
That's a pretty river.
I caught a bunch of these... a bunch.
Dry dropper... and yes, I caught a couple on that massive stonefly dry.
This is what passed for a bigger fish today.
The Green Drakes were out… all 3 of them. The hatch was far from epic. Still, fish were caught on the dries.
My guess is the big fish are lower… the certainly weren’t in the bit of water I was fishing, or, if they were, they were not in the mood to play. Fun day on the water though.
Yum.
