Callibaetis and Baetis; Fall Silver Creek


I went to the South Fork of Boise River first today after long long interval though, I was fed up with a bunch of anglers.

So I change the destination to the Silver Creek.








At Sullivan Lake(Slough), I did see some rise and no fishermen there. I found some callibaetis dun were sipped by trout.


I caught first one by #16 dun pattern soon. It was a kind of small one, but good start for me.













It was beautiful day there.














I caught some fish there. The largest one was 15incher, so beautiful.









This dun gave me a luck.

Around four o'clock, rises were stopped.










Then I moved to the junction of Loving Creek as second hole.

I found a few baetis dun there, so I selected its dun pattern without hesitation.

Although the number of rise was not so many, I found some certain ones.
The rising spot was so difficult to drift the dry fly naturally.






Fortunately I had good luck.

It was 16inch/40cm pretty colored one. I was so satisfied with this result.











After that, the rise was faded away, and I ended fishing.

I felt I made a better progress than last year.

遂にシルバークリークも征服ですね!また日本に帰ってからもアイダホに遊びにきてください。先週末は週末に休みをくっつけてオレゴンのベンドやユージーンあたりに行ってきました。ベンド周辺はフライフィッシング天国ですが、かみさんと犬と一緒だったので釣りはちょっぴりだけ。でもデシューツで限られた時間の中17インチの綺麗なワイルドレッドバンドが釣れたのでうれしかったです。またブログにそのうち書きますので見てくださいね!

決して、征服できてはいませんが、大分楽しめるようになりました。yokoyam3にいろいろと教えていただいたおかげです。

デシューツのレッドバンド、いいですねぇ。結局いけそうにないので、ブログのUpを楽しみにしています。
