I'm in Prince Edward Island, Canada.

I fish early in the morning or at sunset.
Dry flies right now.
I fish the deeper holes below a ripple and near the banks, when there are
banks.

The biggest trout I caught this summer was about 1-1/4 lb.
I seem to catch all kinds of trout too small to keep.
I'm happy with 1 -2 lb fish.

I know there are lots of big trout in the river.

The water is cold, so that if I held my hand in it for 10 minutes, it would
ache.

Well, dry flies don't have a reputation for being "big fish"
catchers. Even brook trout become more piscavorous when they get
larger. If you're serious about catching big fish then you should be
using larger streamers rather than dry flies unless you actually see a
big fish feeding on top. Personally though I'd prefer catching lots a
"little" fish to only hooking an occasional big fish.


g.c.

Who is also happy with 1-2 lb fish.
