Theaux Le Gardeur Mighty nice weather happening-at least until Thursday. We’ve already had a few in this morning that called in sick-a few wild fish on the end of their lines should cure them. Fish were rising just above Falls Rd this morning. A #12 elk hair or #14 stimulator with a #18-#22 BWO behind it has accounted for a bunch of fish this week. Water is clear, around 104 Cfs-a great wading level and about 57 F.
Theaux is bringing a group up to the North Fork Of Long Island to fish for Albacore, Stripers and Blues. This area is much quieter than Harkers and the fish are willing.Capts. Jeff Becker and Jason Dapra will provide the boats and the know how. Be sure to bring at least a 9 wt. rod. These fish are strong! Call the shop for details at 410-329 6821. Space is limited to 4 anglers
Quite a few nice fish over 14″ have been caught this week. Stop by the shop and ask us how. The water has warmed up to around 59 F and is clear. Small dries and bead head pheasant tails continue to produce. With the rain coming, San Juan worms and small streamers are a good bet.
This Saturday two fish were caught at the same time by a lucky angler. She was fishing a #12 Stimulator with a #18 BWO as a dropper. The river is beautiful, water is clear, water temp is 54 F and we are hearing reports of fish being caught on small dries throughout the catch and release section.
We have some great rods in the shop priced at 25% off until they are gone.These rods are from R.L.Winston and St.Croix, feature a full warranty, and work just fine. Manufacturers typically change rod offerings in the Fall so now is the time to pick up last years’ wonders on sale. Stop by the shop and treat yourself to a sale rod before they are gone.
It’s raining now. Lots of reports of folks catching fish above Falls Rd on Olives #18-20 and small CDC Caddis #18. Clouds in the forecast tomorrow should brew up some great weather for Olives. While there are still many craneflies around a #18 griffith’s gnat or #18-22 ICSI midge is usually more effective. Water temp was 52 F today and may rise quite a bit if we get any spillover from the Dam. If the water is a little off-color tomorrow try a small streamer. A #10 or #12 wooly bugger in brown or olive should be a good prospecting fly.
