Low Water Blues

Here's the Fishing Report from the fly shop in Boulder Junction, WI:
================================================== ====================
Trout

Inland Trout season ends Saturday September 30th, but low water levels
have hurt our trout populations and it is best for the survival of the
resource to cease all your trout fishing for the season!
================================================== ====================

Damn the luck. Now what ?

I still plan to leave Urbana this Sunday and go fishing for a week
or two *somewhere*, the question now is where.

The Boulder Junction/Sylvania/Watersmeet area is nice because you
can fish for trout, musky, pike and smallies all in the same area.
I guess I could go up there and fish for musky, pike and smallies
but I'm thinkin' I'm gonna punt and go somewhere where I can wade
in a trout stream.

Who knows where the good trout fishing is gonna be happenin' next
week ? (And is willing to post it to roff ;-)

Going to float and wade the west branch of the Pennobscot next week.
The Rapid is fishing very well, as is the Magalloway. East Outlet is
also doing well. Stripers have been outstanding this past week
(southern Maine).

All these big brookies and land locks and so little time.

We have room in the garage, btw, between the snow-blower and lawn
mower. Bring your own blankets. I'll get a couple of cases of Hamms
cooled for you. d;o)

I'm planning on fishing in Yellowstone Park in October - specifically, the
Bechler area - extreme south west corner. The season in Yellowstone ends
the first weekend in November. FWIW there are a number of streams open all
year in Idaho - one such stretch is Portneuf river between Lava Hot
Springs and American Falls.

I've fished the Bechler. It's pretty cool -- a classic meadow stream
with very large and VERY spooky fish. Try downstream presentations with
hoppers and other terrestrials. I'd wait (and wait and wait) for a fish
to reveal itself with a rise before even trying a presentation. This is
the right time of the year -- earlier, it's lousy with mosquitoes.

You can go below the falls and catch lots of small fish. The big ones
are above the falls.

Watch out for the bears.

Utahphobia.
