On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, I headed for South Folk of Boise River after four months approximately. It was a kind of anual event for me(Last Winter).It was cloudy and so cold about 15F(-10C) in the morning. I thought it must be one of the colder fishing trip.
I could see some midge hatch at first hole, but no fish rose. So I tried nymphing, stonefly nymph and brassie dro
pper.I got two whitefish by brassie. They were about 15 inch, not bad.
It was difficult to continue fishing because of its coldness. Everything got frozen easily, and I had numbed fingers. Though I did several holes, I got nothing.
At last hole, I could see some rises. It was about 15:30. So I change the rig to the dry fly system.
I got the one(18.5inch/47cm) by midge parachute. It was my pleasure to catch it by dry fly inspite of such a coldness.
Those rises continued about one hour, but I couldn't get a strike more.

この前の日曜日はオワヒに行きましたが、マエストロが2匹つっただけで私はスカンクでした。氷がかなり張っていて、オープンウオーターは上流のほうだけという感じでした。今度の日曜は私もサウスフォークでミッジ狙いしてみようと思います。あまり寒くなり過ぎなければいいんですが、、、
オワヒは渋いんですね。サウスもたまたまミッジのハッチがあったから救われたものの、極寒でした。手袋の先がない三本の指先は未だに少し違和感があります。お気をつけて。
