Competition at the creek this afternoon
Got a late start today .
Didn’t make it to the creek until just after two.
I looked upstream while casting my 6’6’ 2wt Grimlin flyrod and noticed Mr Blue was fishing the creek today .
He had the advantage of being able to cover the middle of the upper end of the creek . But I never saw him connect .
I looked up a few minutes later and he was gone .
The creek was low . I could see the logs on the bottom where the shoal bass wrapped me up the other day .
Fishing was tough . In two hours I caught nine , most were redbreast. A couple small bluegills and one unexpected green sunfish. The first greenie I’ve caught out of the creek .
The biggest was caught first on a rubber legged dragon.
I kept having to change flies to get bites . Best fly was a size 12 generic mosquito I tied with a grizzly hackle tail , gray chenille body and grizzly hackle palmered up front .
There’s not as much shade in the afternoon at the creek , but an occasional breeze made it tolerable.
Hope you enjoy the pics .
