Hi Folks, Finally a day guiding fly anglers this fall with really good fishing. We landed 14 trout of 21 we had eat the fly. 13 of those fish were wild Winooski rainbows with one 11" stocked brown in the mix. Water temperature was 58 degrees and the level is still very low. No bugs to speak of. The fly of the day was a #12 Prince nymph. We swung the nymph into the head of one large riffle and could not miss!. Incredible how many trout were holding in one spot. Letting the fly drift all the way through the run was important until in settled in the seam below. We were fishing on the lower Winooski were the water is rather big. We landed 3 legitimate measured 15" to 16" rainbows. Good strong fish. We tried several other fly patterns with no success. Seemed like a good fishing day with the weather being overcast and damp. Same pattern today and I will be on the Winooski once again. Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home. Have Fun, Willy
