Hi Folks, Spent a really nice afternoon guiding a father and son river fishing. Dad cast a fly and son a spin rod. Water is still up and off colored. The Lamoille and Winooski will be a few days away from fishing. Tributary streams are the best bet currently. Nice weather pattern has moved in and it appears that it will be cool and dry for the next few days. Water temperature yesterday afternoon was 64 degrees. Not much for hatching bugs. We worked a variety of streamers actively to no avail so we resorted to dead drifting a #8 black wolly bugger under an indicator. We got four fish to eat. All of the trout were holding in skinny water off the main current. With the water being stained, the fish were very close to the river bank and you had to pay attention to not move into the water and spook them. It was really nice spending an afternoon in dry sunny conditions. Very relaxing. Off to chase smallmouth from the boat. Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home. Have Fun, Willy
