Andy & I headed out to 11 Mile Canyon for a nice but windy tail on the home tailwater. We parked at the last bridge and before starting we encountered 3 moose heading toward us ~ I've never seen moose here. Flows are down a smidge to 105cfs. We caught a number of fish and willows. I caught only cutbows, but Andy
landed some browns too. We first hit the last bridge after passing 40
cars in the canyon. We were pretty early arriving at 9am but there were
others with the same idea. Midges worked decently in the morning but we
were skipping a number of good spots already occupied. NP, as intrepid
fishermen do, we found fish between the occupied holes. The wind kept
the hatch down significantly but mayflies were seen ~11am or noon and
worked at that time. The bite was not on today but we caught plenty, most
on the red-brown midges. It was a blast despite the wind.
Of course we regaled at Red Leg before separating. Thanks for coming out Andy!
