Re: [coflyfishers] Lower Dee-shoots

People: You might want to visit Chickahominy Reservoir soon.  The trout there are still hitting flies regularly - and most of them are very heavy and great fighters.  They jump like the Canadian rainbows.  I had a 40 fish day today - the best day I have ever had fly fishing!  I was using a BH damsel nymph slowly trolled and periodically stripped about 4-6 inches with pauses.  A few weeks ago I had a 30 fish day using mostly the same technique with the same fly.  At about 2:30 p.m I started using a black microleech with a BH damsel nypmph about 14-16 inches behind it and I caught trout on both flies (5 on the micoleech and 4 on the BH damsel from about 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.  Others were catching trout on chironomids throughout the day.

Dear Dave;

Great report!  Yeah, I noticed that the fish in the Bend area werent going for dry stonefly patterns, either, even though the critters were thick on the bushes, in some spots.

That was last week, though and things are really warming up.  Maybe the fish will get a little more aggressive when the water warms.

Tight lines! - v

Howdy folks,

Just joined the yahoo group so I thought I'd post a message....

I went down to the Maupin area on the 25th. The golden stones and salmon flies were
getting thick on the bushes (and trees, and my hair, and in my vest...). The fish weren't yet
keyed into the adults but the nymph fishing was excellent. I caught quite a few of the little
fellers, several in the 12-14" and a couple in the 16-18" range (two to be exact). I didn't stay
until dark so, they may be keying in to the adults later in the day.

Watch out for rattlers (saw 2) and ticks.

Anywho, just thought I'd share/brag.

David

Remember, the fish aren't after the Salmon fly. They are after the protein scent of the eggs the females are dropping, they just take in the delivery system to...

I started fishing south of Maupin around 630am and by about 1100, all I was catching were what the flyshop's owner termed: "Suicide Smolts". I was told that...
