A good flow, but the water was too warm for brookies, much better for the landlockeds.

I bought a few of them as dry flies and had immediate success with the pattern on the Kennebago and the Magalloway. In fact, I hooked and landed a nice salmon of 15 inches on a big #8 dry fly. Now I'm curious how well the pattern works in other areas of the country.Rivertoprambles.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626506287390614121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-83128403848306900282015-09-11T15:43:05.123-04:002015-09-11T15:43:05.123-04:00
