Re: Water
I stopped at the SBR yesterday, had a hankering to fly fish. The temp was 65 degrees, but the water is super low. I was at Brown's corner, casting dries to rising fish from 5 PM to 8:30 PM. I immediately took 2 fish on my Flymph, then nothing. Changed to a caddis emerger and got 2 more...then nothin...

Water
Hope all you boobs are leaving the trout alone for the time being, with no water for weeks and some heat that passed, conditions are less than ideal for C&R fishing...that being said, if you keep them, have fun.... you may find me at Spruce Run Reservoir on some select evenings with gas station worm...

Re: Fishing Emergers Question
I find a Pheasant tail soft hackle fished dry works on most mayfly hatches as an emerger. Tie them on dry fly hooks and use thread instead of wire....you can also swing it wet....doesn't always work, but it did the other night during a sulphur hatch.

These responses are making me think back to the 'Boofests from years ago. Drossi, Rollcast, and whoever else out there with a bamboo rod--let me know if you want to hit a stream together. Let's do it. I'm in Glen Gardner, so most trout streams are near me. I am.in Glen Gardner as well..Second Stree...

Re: never caught a trout so low on the main stem of raritan
Caught an all silver rainbow in Califon a few years back. Fought extremely well also. It was hanging in slow deep water in the spring. Haven't ever seen another one like it. Spotty, but all silver, no hint of red..

Re: Caddis "dry flly"
Fish a dry adult caddis of your choice and trail an iris caddis during the caddis hatches and hold on for dear life...you can fish the iris as a pupa, but if the fish are rising steadily I would fish them both dry...

Re: Flies
I found Hendricksons and some Quill Gordons hatching on the SBR last Tuesday and fish were looking up. Went to the Musky for Saturday and while I didn't fish (manned the grill and taught from the bank), there was a good caddis emergence and fish were taking them below the film. Swinging a LaFontain...

Re: Flies
Hi Bill, I was out last week and saw Caddis, the fish were taking pupae, I saw Hendrickson's, but not many and the fish were not interested in them, I saw stoneflies, but the fish didn't want those either...cadddis was the trick last week on the SBR..
