Owyhee River, Sunny(79F/26C at highest), Hatch: Midge, Caddis Caught: 5,
- Today's my purpose was definitely to enjoy dry fly fishing for rise.
Then I found one, though it looked not stable.
I decided to try there first. After a few casts, I felt something heavy just before I picked my midge dry fly up. Fortunately I had a luck accidentally around 6:30PM, but it was not my target rise...
Although I waited another rise, I couldn't see any. So I moved to upstream.
I had to change the tactics to nymphing, because there was not any rise.
During my nymphing, one fish rose and sip tiny something very close to me! I stepped back slowly with care, and changed it to midge dry fly again.
After changing dry patten several times, he took it finally(around 8:30PM).
He was average, but strong one. Maybe strong flow supported him. I was glad to have it just as I intended.
I could catch three more fish all by midge dry pattern at same side channel. It was about 9:10PM for the last one.
I really satisfied with them. Thanks a lot!

お久しぶりです。オワヒは相変わらず渋いようですがそのかなでかなり健闘されているご様子、流石ですね。去年の夏もそうでしたが、洪水後は夕方遅くまで粘らないとライズが始まらないようですね。この前リトルカマス貯水池に行ってきました。結構つれますよ。でも止水なのでフロートチューブでニンフをストリップするというような釣りです。今度うちのブログにあげときますんでそのうち見てくださいね。
yokoyam3ご無沙汰してます。
確かに渋いことが多いですが、久しぶりのDryは最高に面白いです。最近、釣果だけでなく、過程を含めて、楽しむことができるようになった気がします。川って素晴らしいですね。ライズを見つけただけでもドキドキします。自然の前では常に謙虚でありたいものです。
確か新聞で見た気がするのですが、リトルカマス気になっていました。Up楽しみにしています。
