A Brown caught on a glass bead-head nymph |
A new spot was found on the Kinnickinnic that looks to promise large fish. On a sweltering day with high humidity, the fishing was not fantastic, but the one brown pulled from a shallow pool was of some size. The trout taken was in a prime lie (right outside of the ideal current, but hidden). There were plenty of places where the river bottle-necked creating turbulent deeper pools on the end of the neck. At the end of the pool, or the tail, is where bigger trout like to hold.

A nice Brown before release |
There were also many good visible seams in the water where trout wait just outside of the turbulence and wait for food to drift past. There were a few fish rising, but none would rise to the variety of flies offered. The trout taken was caught on one of my glass bead-head nymphs I tied this past winter.

A very large, deep pool |
I am excited to return to this new spot in the future. At the end of the day, I found an extremely large and deep pool with a nice current and many fish rising. By this point in the day however, I was out of my nymphs, sinkers and strike indicators and too many kayakers were passing by and stirring up the waters. I am eager to see what this spot tholds in the
future.
