Notes
It is rare to catch small fish on the MO, but somehow I managed. No big boys this days. Got a decent rainbow nymphing, but that was it. No surface action until late in the evening. Not sure if the hatches showed up because I moved to a different section of the river (towards craig) or if it just started later. A decent hatch of caddis (size 16) started late. Got into some pods of fish but they were dinks.. ..Only saw a few large fish rising (16" plus) but it was very sporadic.
Once again the MO, has my number. I can't ever catch fish in this damn river....the "largest and best spring creek in the world"....with "spectacular dry fly fishing" ....yeah, yeah, blah, blah.
